Heavier Than All the Misses Combined
Let's workshop this poem about the human proclivity to find meaning and insight in vague statements or predictions, and to remember the hits while forgetting the misses
Heavier Than All the Misses Combined
From the same birth chart
different astrologers shotgun
so many differing horoscopes
that some are bound to strike home,
the whole fishing enterprise
legitimized as insight
at least for those craving
childhood wonder
on the self-deceiving end of the bell curve.
