A La Mozart


Always been creative in one form or another It's definitely what turns my crank Sometimes I wish I could turn it off but no dice Been blessed with this very active mind Which can actually be a real curse At times I'd just like to kick back Put my mind in neutral and let the world go by I think they called it “vegetate” However, that word is not part of my vocabulary Those that don't suffer from this can't imagine Why I would want a break from it Well, to start, normal things like watching TV Or watching a movie at the theatre never hold my interest They are non productive hours I know, you must be thinking, “Poor soul!” Don't get me wrong, I enjoy being me Although it sometimes can be overwhelming Writing poetry is my current outlet I have no idea what could possibly come next Maybe I'll write a symphony, a la Mozart!

Stay creative Jack, I limit my tv viewing, can't understand these folks that have it on 24/7. There's more to life. Tom
