Some Say

I've heard some say
Life is short. 
Enjoy. Enjoy.
Do enjoy while you can.

So some say:
Do the eat, drink and be merry dance
   for now is here 
   and domani be quite questionable.

Push aside all others. They just get in the way.
Be first in line.

Ignore the poor. 
What have they to do with you? 
They wouldn’t be needy if they worked harder, 
Right?

What? No ticket for tomorrow in your pocket?
No matter—you can always steal one.

Life is short.
Enjoy the enjoy.
However you can.
While you can.

And many a day
I’ve heard some so say,
say without the words,
say with the doing, 
that just-for-me-nobody-but-me-me-ism.

So I've heard some say.
So I've watched some live.
