My Opinion

If you ask for my opinion,
I will share it. Freely.
It will not be what I think you want to hear.

If you ask for my opinion,
You will get what I think.
This is probably not what you are thinking.

If you ask for my opinion,
I will tell you why you are wrong.
It’s free. No extra charge.

If you ask for my opinion,
Don’t.

Author: Blind John Ellsworth

Blind John Ellsworth (1960- ), a (questionable) poet and sometimes Texas bluesman. He has recorded one spoken-word album (thankfully unreleased), since he is still trying to learn to play guitar. (Lack of musical skills is what makes him a poet and not a lyricist. Plus, he can’t write music.)
