towards hypocrisy

I do as I say
not as I do. It creates
localized paradoxes in logic
and space, but I
time them
and parcel them out
just so, so reality
doesn't implode.
Just the odd mind or face,
or temperament, or even
the even ones, now and then.
I don't make a rule, or abide
or observe for that matter
- which sidesteps
the break and bend.
And so far, it's
a decent reap's worth
of dividend. Especially
given my so-so sow,
but you must take the good
with the bad, or you're
doing it wrong. That's
the way it does not
have to go.
