Just Another Day

Wake up.
Out through the front door.
In through the out door.
Down a rabbit hole.
Then up and around.
Do a headstand on the lawn.
On the roof do a little dance.
Sit in a tree and talk to birds about romance.
Wasting time in every way.
Wasted time in every day.
Diesel fume breeze.
Memory spinning.
Of cars sounds passing.
Less days count out nonsense.
More things to do with time.
Before than ever.
Less so tomorrow.
To never think about.
When we do it all again.
To look forward to.
Put a little here and away.
Save it in some soggy hay.
