THE BREVITY OF LIFE.

SO BRIEF?

Oh I actually enjoy this

I feel as though I’ve hit it big

I don’t ever want to go without a kiss

Though some might say am just a pig

All I can do right now is attend some gig

Now what do you say we stop the fritz?

Get on avoiding the tits

Oh come on!! What is wrong with you?

Then all of a sudden…

In the blink of the eye

The next millisecond…

“we regret to announce the demise of …..”

WHAT?!!!

How come?

What really happened?

How did it happen?

Why him, or why her?

Why now?

These and more are the questions

Which flood the inner recesses of the mind

At this particular point in time….

So brief?

Here today and gone tomorrow?

Plant the grief and burn the furrow

This breath we have gone to borrow

And every step a man takes

Bring him closer to the gallow

So why hang your talent on the willow?

Why staring through the window?

Or are you waiting to get to glascow?

I probably have nothing much to say

But I’ve been in and out of the bay

Remember man is but just clay

And if you don’t like the way,

You still got a price to pay

Beast and dragons all to slay

If thou wish not death your skin to flay,

In the never ending fires of eternity’s day,

No room for delay or for the fray

For soon you will sing the song through the ages’ day

And then ask yourself at the end of the day…

So brief?
