Master of Nothing

 
 

Like small choice

—but voice

when it comes to speaking,

a song is much more than

amplified squeaking,

or Auto-tuned vocal,

better for tweaking,

talent is needed

& learned application

else everyone’d be

a singing sensation!

 

The same goes for paintbrush

you can’t rush to claim

—the title of master

it comes with your name,

that barring disaster

backs up your game,

a seasonal task

2 showings a day

with 2 wines

and cheese plates

in pleasing array…

 

Like master

—a maestro

is one who knows music,

who waves magic wand

with innate intuit,

decades of learning

is method to do it,

while peer recognition

is also conduit,

you can’t go by maestro

unless you can prove it…

 

And what about authors

–a little known fact

it’s short for “authority”

implying that

the writer in question

is more than a person,

gifted with speech

keyboard, and cursor,

with Internet reach

and hours to surf it,

 

so until one is willing

to study the classics

—to read—

and to write

and consider basics,

for a lifetime

or longer until you need Lasik,

the title of author

is just too inflated.

  1. That’s some wise words Karen…

  2. Words from the author. The authority on her books. The master of humour and word associated funnyisms

  3. I don’t think I’ve mastered being me yet…

    • I think that maybe comes a second before we kick. An “ah-hah, I got it!” moment, and then…eeeggghhh…

      Kinda like when you are eating Haagen Daz, and right before the very last bite, you realize just how good it was…

      Part of the fun…the mystery of self…
