Excuses

Find me
something
that I truly want,
something
that makes my heart
come alive,
and I will find
every excuse
for why I should
not even try
to reach
for it.

If I never try
I can never fail…
or is it,
to never try
is to always fail?

Hi, my name is Jacob Anton (ANN-tin) Davis. I am a husband, father, attorney, and writer. I have written poetry and fiction as a hobby for the past 20 years, but I launched J. Anton Poetry in 2019 to share my writing publicly. The poems of mine on this site largely describe my thoughts about the deeper connections and meaning in our everyday lives.
