Pauper's Prayer (Epigram)

by MyHalozChokinMe   Nov 19, 2012


You always want what you don't have and fail to appreciate what you do; Please don't make me better off lest caviar ruin my taste for stew.

~An epigram is a very short poem, usually two or four lines long, with a simple rhyme scheme. The goal of an epigram is to encapulate a brief bit of wit or wisdom in poetic form.~

      Thank you Andrea.

      I felt stagnant, and out of desperation, played around with form, a bit.
