New poem: "It's Time to Start Over"

 

It’s Time to Start Over

 

When life becomes

an endless stream of platitudes,

you know you have stopped learning;

 

When an irascible person resents a good

person and complains out of petty

spite and it bothers you, you

have stopped loving;

 

When the books you read, and the movies,

documentaries, newspapers, and daily news

no longer speak to you, you have

outgrown yourself;

 

And it’s time to start over.
