beware

beware of enthusiasm,
it will lead you into dangerous
situations.
beware of
champagne love,
the bubbles evaporate
so quickly,
the bottle
once cold goes warm
and stale
by mornings light.
beware of those who know
so much
and need to tell others
what they know.
beware
of early risers,
courageous men,
men wearing medals,
flirtatious women.
women with more than three
cats.
those who love
the spotlight,
those who don't.
beware of good people.
no one is truly
good.
beware of the mirror.
it's not the truth.
