Wordplay Or How To Rack Your Brain

 Just a poem, not life. 

Sea's waves roll in and out rhythmically
See a change, now its arrhythmically

Tsunami must be the blame or
Tommy's sleeping open-mouth snore

Amassed tangible wealth did he
A missed taking care of health, you see

Tsunami life lived now explodes
Tommy's health suddenly implodes
