--hard luck--

     wrote this while enjoying a
coffee, at my favorite spot here
in town( i love those ladies of the
coffee bean)--


   the school of hard knocks,
learning the hard way, tough luck,
so many ways to describe things
not going well--
    be that as it may, on the bright
side, things are still, indeed, going...
    onward, to even greater heights
of despair, or, most likely, happier
times--
   some of the joy of the trip, is the
bumps in the road...
       --go in a good way--
