THE NEVER ENDING CIRCLE
On awakening, you rise out of bed,
clean your teeth, and take a shower,
put on your clothes, and brush your head.
Breakfast is consumed, at a rapid pace,
into your car, and off you go,
to join the slavery race.
Head down, and butt up all day,
trying hard to convince the boss,
that you are worthy of your pay.
Five o'clock comes, and home you go.
turn on the television,
may be, watch a show.
A microwave meal, is consumed,
while the stereo plays,
your favourite tunes.
Then into the shower, for a nice hot scrub,
if you are lucky,
someone gives your back, a rub.
Into bed with pajamas on,
now the circle is complete,
for you are right back where you started from.
Tango.
