Afternoon Doldrums
What if I could go anywhere
and live my life without a care?
If I could be anyone
would I have more fun?
There are so many possibilities
living life without any responsibilities.
This life seems so dull today.
I don't want to feel this way.
My mind fills with dreams so big.
Instead, I'm stuck in this brig.
Work is what it is called.
I feel so stalled.
Yet my mind wanders.
Far horizons I ponder.
Oh release me...
I just want to flee.
I want to be out there...
in the fresh air.
Not cooped up behind this desk
It all seems so grotesque.
I read about others' lives
Don't get me wrong, I'm not deprived.
I think I'm just annoyed
For sure I'm glad I'm employed.
Soon that bell will ring.
I'll give this pen a fling.
Out the door I will go.
Tomorrow back to earn more dough.
