bowdre bowdre jr - Floundering

I don't know what I'm doing here.
I'm no poet or prophet,
Definitely not a sage.
I more often flounder under the weight of my thoughts
Than float in the halcyon days.

I guess we all suffer from delusions of grandeur at times
No one wants to be mediocre do they?
In the end all we have is the striving, the climbing
Toward those imagined heights
Which is beautiful in its own right........
I have to believe so anyway.
