Another Time, Another Rhyme

Another day, another way
Another year, another tear
Another place, different space
Old book, new look

Old fears, new tears
Look back, different tack
Loose ends, old friends
Say goodbye, heavy sigh

Another pickle, life's fickle
Must fight, no light
Money spent, anger pent
New sun, nothing done

Seeds sown, food grown
Another hour, pretty flower
Birds tweet, so sweet
Cold frost, plants lost

Bent over, search clover
No luck, still stuck
Blue sky, can't fly
Soul bare, I care

Drugged nutter, dirty gutter
Back lane, insane
Hair lank, face blank
Empty mind, chose blind

Find peace, wars cease
Old world, flag furled
Modern world, Brain curled
No room, such gloom

Brain flop, full stop.
