To Scramble...

Just playin' with words again...for me a way to "spark my plugs" in my brain...

To Scramble…


 


A flurry of activity,


Is commonly called a bustle,


As in hustle and bustle,


But what is all this commotion,


I hear spoken of so often?


 


Is it just the fact that,


When we get busy we also get fat,


From the fast food we eat,


When the rushing we do, not having time,


To eat a good meal, so much for our minds…


 


I do not offer here a remedy,


As I do the same thing, as we all do,


Till that time in the day or night,


When we all have to go to beddy,


And turn out that confounded light…
