Lampshade

What happens
when you have like
eight things to say
and you try to say them
for say, a thousand times?
Do you think folks are going to be interested
after, maybe,
the fourteenth iteration?
Don’t you think people might get bored?

You may believe
you have a multitude of ways
to express those eight ideas,
but what if you’re wrong?
What if you actually do have a multitude
but it’s a small multitude
and nowhere near enough
to be original each and every time?
What if you’re repetitive?

What if you’re repetitive?
What if you keep dipping from the same well
over and over
and over and over?
What if you have less to say
than you think you do?
What then?
