The clock drills out its alarming appeals

Screaming wake up boy

Morning already

Bathroom mirror reflects an innocent face

Weighted by detriment

Of a world so heavy

 

Headline cliché destructive negative

No fry skimmed milk

Welcomes the break of the fast

Decaffeinated fibred eat and you die

Don't eat you die sooner

Try to make your life last

 

Infinite universe

Time eternal

Life's span barely a catch of death

Expectations routined

Work third of our lives

Full circle every day until death

 

Everyone in a rush

Impatience boredom

Wishing life away for weekend

But life goes too fast

Slow down take it easy world

Live for now in present

Not future nor past
