Analysis of Enough
I’m young enough
and old enough
And smart enough
and dumb enough
And rich enough
and poor enough
To laugh enough
and cry enough
But fast enough
and slow enough
To guess enough
and know enough
To take enough
and give enough
To think enough
—and feel enough
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2020)
