My Past, Present and Future–Oversimplified

I have been a great fool –

Both a slave and an objector to rules.

I have been known to stare or drool.

I have been known to think I'm cool.

I might not be a lover or a fighter.

I might be a perpetual friend-slighter,

Which I'm writing off, since I'm probably a writer.

All I know for certain–I'm a certain kind of blighter.

I might find my home once I walk through the gate.

I might be signing myself up for a full plate.

I might find myself content in the situation I create.

I might be a holder for an ego, with a mouth to blow, inflate,

But all I want to be is late.
