Fool

This is a loose villanelle about an average life inspired by a Radiohead song called Nude

Fool

Big Ideas? Don‘t get any.
Your extra-large dreams won’t come true,
No, they’re not going to happen.

When you see a lovely lady at the lounge,
She’s only there for others to screw.
You won‘t get any, big shot

Suppress your sinful scheme for success,
While leaving your friends in the rearview.
Don’t even pretend that it’s going to happen.

That perfect painting, and peerless poem,
You need to find something new.
Keep working with your small ideas.

If you encounter an extravagant employer,
Flipping burgers is what you should pursue
Because your not lucky enough for that to happen to you.

Forget your biggest dreams,
They’ll just have to be subdued
So don’t get any more big ideas
They’re never going to happen.
