When in Roam

Walkabout

running start

work on the work

play a-part

 

You see, that's the thing

when aloft and awing

a makeshift wisdom

becomes a prison

 

Run around

falling away

work just to work

burn through the day

 

You know, that's the way

and what they all say

hay in sunshine

losing my mind

 

Lie about

consumption death

work not to work

labor in breath

 

You think, that's enough

sick of this stuff

crawl from the cause

avoiding the pause

 

Reach around

balance in lack

work, oh the work

good to be back

 

You feel: the notion

creative commotion

scorn to be earned

All hail!  My return

A lot said in these words. Satirical sarcasm. We work to consume. Because we consume we must work. Many just work through the day and do what the boss says without really working. Just getting along with whatever Rome they are in.

It's a keeper!
