Screw it! (Prompt 16)

The best advice I was ever given
was to throw away
any printed instructions

Just wing it
I was told; figure it out
trust your instincts, and your guts

The best advice I was ever given
has served me well
being as life is not

never has been a
slot A into tab B
sort of endeavor – strictly D-I-Y

Life much more IKEA than Louis XVI
even when many of
the parts are
missing you learn
more by improvising than conforming
