Some Old, Short Ditties
Some Old, Short Ditties
(doggerel)
I.
Our sojourn on Earth
is of diminutive worth.
Our small time is spent
(and no more are we lent!)
long before we're ready.
II.
Drunkening wine of heady
illusion obliterates thought
and causes confusion.
III.
Fleeting is life!
Fruitless existence!
'Ere any purpose
is completed
life is done --
and we're defeated!
