Closed For Business

My mind is under new management 
Much like those Boards outside failing restaurant's 
Willing you in to take a 2nd look
But stuck using the same old tired Chef
And worn out Menu

So what's the point of New Management 
If nothing has really changed

Simply a Stay of Execution 
Until you eventually wake up and realize 

The Coffee is best passed its 
Sell by Date

And fate is what
You write about 

When you have time on your hands 
After the last customers have left
And the Doors have closed
