TODAY AND TOMORROW

I stubbed a toe this morning
Against a wooden stair
I breathed deep and filled my lungs
With fresh polluted air

I cursed aloud an angry sound
I thought of mother nature
I always tear her forests down
What difference if I hate her?

I took the daily break of fast
Varied, processed fresh
I watch the latest miseries
Always unimpressed

I'm ready for another day
Stepped outside my cares
Auto-pilot for the mind
All I am just disappears

I interact obediently
Following the code
Know the beat of my routine
My social node

If dreamlike cares will whisper close
No good
Regular, steady, working drone
Do should
When day is over
Time to sleep
Returned always, in dreams, to me

Very true! Sad isn't it?? Good job!

We spend our whole lives trying to live, only to realize that we don’t know what life is truly about until it is too late.
