Sameness

When life slips into sameness And the days go drifting by, Those who shuffle, feeling aimless, Should find other fish to fry. For the bored are never blameless Since there’s so much they can do Without being bold or shameless In the projects they pursue. We can all claim sloth or lameness If we fall into a funk But to overcome the sameness, We must rise from where we’ve sunk.

These hazes of these phases. Sometimes raises, sometimes lazes. If we wake it's almost certain. We'll survive if we are hurtin' And if we make hay to find our way. It won't be a waste at the final curtain.
