AT CROSS PURPOSE

at cross purpose

with one's own self

comes back around

biting one in their conscience

feeding off one's innocence
dragging one down

idle chitchat among those

having nothing to say

preferring to be elsewhere

having it their own way
live to fight another day

unthinking passion

becomes treacherous 

blind love waning

whatever it takes.

whatever it takes, friends,

neighbors, alligators

and the such.

whatever ti takes;

just get up and do it.

get up and get it done.

whatever.....
