They give me sand with which to quench my thirst, enough to fill an ocean, high and dry. Ain't life perverse? They raise my hopes, then dash them to the earth, though I am just an ordinary guy. They give me sand with which to quench my thirst. I rage against them now, for all I'm worth! The fist I raise in anger blacks one eye. Ain't life perverse? The one which holds the pen is even worse, such nonsense does it write that I could cry! They give me sand with which to quench my thirst! Unfair it is that I should be so cursed, to write these poems so lame, yet I must try. Ain't life perverse? These hands that I've been dealt I've had since birth. Could someone answer just one question, why, they give me sand with which to quench my thirst? Ain't life perverse? |

Doc-- Unfair it is that I should be so cursed, to write these poems so lame, yet I must try. Ain't life perverse? You talking about me in these lines? I felt this way so often. Shenachie |
