THE PLAN

I sat down to try
and write a plan,
in an attempt
to be a businessman

I find it’s not
a quality in me-
maybe I’m filled
with too much honesty

But there’s the catch,
I’m selling a part of myself,
some thoughts and theories
to collect dust on some shelf

And typical me,
instead of a plan
I write a poem,
stocking void spaces
in my mind
and my home
