Irony;
A person who hopes on dreams
to escape their nightmares.
-W.E.
Most people are prodding along unaware of their slumber.
Like cattle, they prattle
Like mules, fools
Like sheep, they graze
Hamsters in a maze
Unaware of the craze
The mess of their daze
Foggy haze
Until six feet deep, their body lays
They wonder about lost days,
Wasted, ablaze,
Oh the irony, hell’s inferno,
How heavy it weighs,
Once, you stood over it
Now sun burning soil over you, with bludgeoning rays.
There’s a better way to live than to be asleep.
Don’t wait until death rings your alarm bell.
-W.E.
