The Accidental Troubadour

Non Zero  Sum Game  Flight or fight or  freeze or fawn I was born with  sneakers on Brawling’  from the break of dawn You were born with  boxing gloves on  We’re not identical but Just the same We both can win  in a Non zero Sum Game  Who gives and  Who concedes  There’s a better way  Soon you’ll see There’s no need to destroy  That’s so lame We can both win in a Non Zero sum game  You started out Ready to fight My beginning mark Off to catch a flight  One of us runs and  one of us fights  this will prove to be  an interesting plight  Flight or fight or  freeze or fawn I was born with  sneakers on Brawling’  from the break of dawn You were born with  boxing gloves on  We’re not identical but Just the same We both can win  in a Non zero Sum Game 

Wednesday Nights It was  a Wednesday night  they were going  to make things right  A promise of love, respect, and hope that night  but it quickly devolved  into a fight  Alfred’s theory  fell into the void  opposite theory  posited by Freud  Ultimately isolation and a eventual slip  Maybe it could’ve been avoided cause  you don’t analyze your friends Freud couldn’t  lend his ear to bend so it meant that the society came to an end It was  a Wednesday night  things  Didn’t go right  Alfred’s theory  fell into the void  opposite theory  posited by Freud  Wednesday nights  came to an end  Lesson Learned  you don’t analyze your friends 

I used to run and run till I could’t run anymore  I didn’t know  what I was running for So I went to the doctor and this is what she told me she said all this ruminating is making you feel lonely She said write it down  Write what you know  Add some beats  then you’ve got a song Cause you used to run and run but you don’t have to run anymore with this song - you become  the Accidental Troubadour  So I took her advice  And I took some time Making music  Making it mine She said write it down  Write what you know  Add a beat  then you’ve got a song Cause you used to run and run but you don’t have to run anymore with this song - you are the Accidental Troubadour 

This blog began as a way to share poems and lyrics that I have written. I did not start out with the intention of becoming a writer - it happened accidentally.
