Untitled by the Moment

"Untitled by the moment" Jacob Nahin

Have you ever felt like running away? 
A roller coaster, life, what a trite analogy
but fitting.

Time to start the next stanza,
next thing on the list,
pass the shovel please.

Performance based culture
It sucks
the life out I mean

Life, life, life
running around and 'round and 'round
the merry goes around
or does it?

Penny-less people
and pockets full of cash
both are alike:
eyes look at the ground

Smiles, smiles
tears,tears
these are a few of my favorite things
minus the tears
except when they help
