--A-O-C--

   wrote this last night while sipping,
coffee in a local restaurant--


   taking a break from it all,
in grim surroundings...
no umbrellas in your mia-ti,
making due with what you've
got, when what you have happens
to be a tad less than your worst
nightmare--
   the silver lining of "A-O-C", is there
is still an "A" on the "C", forget where
you fell...remember when you got back
up, the greats keep going, that's how
we roll--
                           --ooh rah--
