Anything Goes

A night’s rest is never enough for the city always calls A new day is like a page flip from the time a night falls A breakfast can be leftover supper to empty bowls Or a smile for sparing the lives of crowing fowls I duck human traffic as I rush for my day’s grind It is just like a switch flip, how I forget what I left behind I have one hope but a million calculations in my mind I take the same turns and corners but I always hope for a new find I am a jack of all trades and I can trade like a jack When there's a lack of luck, when I slack, I turn into a flack Tomorrows become like yesterdays, if today slumbers Time is mostly regrets and money, it is never just numbers Bouyant is what we all are as the tide of struggles flows We all float to a destiny regardless of the type of oars We rushing through rapids to a sea where everything slows On this voyage of life the compass points at one thing, anything goes
