So Repetitive

So repetitive What is life with no change, no excitement Noting to get your blood pumping Everything feels grey and old; maybe even dead Where is the new in life? Even the “news” in the newspaper is the same. People killing people, sex scandals, robberies, and rape So repetitive is life All the “bad” people that never goes unnoticed Look at our media they make this world look monstrous What about the good in the world Lady, age 73, great health Donate a kidney to save the life of a 5 year old child She may want no recognition, nothing in return, but shouldn’t we add to the good in the world What little there is, or what little is shown But she only gets to feel good for herself, by herself Though life is repetitive, life is life, and to have life is a lot Look at the “news”papers its all the same, people killing people, abuse, drunk drivers Focus too much on the bad, blame ourselves or the media Which is easier? Damn repetitive life, give us some new, some good to cast away the image that some of those people have on life or even death What is living with no change, no excitement? That’s not living..
