Reality TV World Message Board Forums
PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

~An Exercise in Futility~

A carrot dangles out in front of me,
I try with all of my might to reach it,
But the person that holds the pole keeps pulling it teasingly,
Tauntingly, taking it away when I am very close to obtaining it.
The carrot skips out over the green grass and lands softly,
I can smell its mild fragrance,
I can almost taste the sweet flesh,
Another tug and it moves along,
Frustrated I stumble and my mouth is filled with dirt instead.
The bitter soil does not daunt me,
But like Charlie Brown who never could kick the ball,
I flail with utter abandon and miss it again.
The closer I get, the further it goes,
Until one day it is out of sight.
I resign myself to life without that carrot.
It probably didn’t taste all that good anyway.

I especially liked the way you evoked the taste and smell of the carrot and then smacked us with the dirt-tasting image. I think the "person" is mean. You don't need that carrot.

Life's like that, we can't always get what we reach for... oh, well, win some, lose some! Fun verse to read, light-hearted as it is.

Nice imagery. I could feel the frustration, and the resignation. Nice job.
