Groundhog Day

Does it matter what you do
or matter what you say?

Does anything mean anything
when you live Groundhog Day?

Is there a way to please the Gods
so that they’ll let you go?

Or maybe there’s no point at all.
Perhaps it’s just a show.

But what else can you do
if you find you’re stuck in this scene.

You have to just keep going
and hope you will find the thing

that they are wanting you to learn.
You have to find a way

to end the drama, check the box…
and escape Groundhog Day.

Escaping the conformity will sometimes save sanity. Each person walks at his own pace. I like your thoughts.
