The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Advice From Afar

Stand by me, there’s room enough,
but never a follower be -
companionship is the real stuff
and each of us is free.

Leadership’s a burden weighty,
we all have cares aplenty -
don’t take on more too hastily,
find your own way so dainty.
