Man of Routine
On the commuter train he was a man of routine
Finish the crossword at exactly eight nineteen
Seven down was particularly tricky today
However this man knew he would find a way
Once seven down was done it was a breeze
Then out came his hanky for his daily sneeze
Routines are right for some and not for others
I'm more free spirited and so are my brothers
The man of routine gets off the crowded train
He's ready no doubt to start his day once again
Will get into work at ten minutes to nine
Post to be opened and letters to sign
Does this man have the same sandwiches for lunch
Cheese and pickle would be my certain hunch
How boring it must be doing the same thing once more
Doing something different would be better for sure
