Matthew Anish Poet Lyric

Workaday World

The bright sun 
       has 
       risen 
       in 
       the 
       sky
  the workaday world 
      has 
         jump started
  into action 
      Automobiles move 
        down city streets
  as pedestrians 
         dodge trucks
    Soon the masses 
will reach their goal
      A cup of coffee or 
      tea
  the day begins
     Minds and muscles 
move 
     Another day in the 
vast metropolis
