"BUT"
But
but but but but but but but but but but but.
But but but but
but but but but but but but but.
Keep repeating
this verse till it's all out of your system.
Say it till
you're sick of buts, and sure you'll never miss them.
You might as
well just say it now: But but but but...come on!
Use it up and
wear it out. Let every but he gone.
This plague,
this scourge: get rid of it. Erase it from your mind.
This saboteur
of plans and dreams will rob and make you blind.
The noblest
plan and wisest scheme are doomed with "but" thrown in.
For, if you
follow what you say with "but," you'll never win.
If an
"and" will not suffice, a period will do.
Stop short of
"but." Refuse to let that scoundrel bully you.
Remember: All
that follows "but" is only an excuse
to fail, or
quit, or think that fatal thought: "Oh what's the use?"
"I would
like to, but.." "I know I could, but.." (not again!)
I know you want
to work on this, but but but but...When?!
So take this
opportunity and get out of a rut!
Don't let your
life be ruined by a nasty little "but."
-- D.B. Saul
