Life is Such a Bore
Life is such a bore,
like a never ending chore.
Life is such a bore
like an always closing door.
Life os such a bore,
like a long and dulling tour. -
The Egyptian Woman

Jewles on her throat
and jewels in her hands. -
It's a Waste of Time
It's a waste of time,
I say, as I walk to the door.

My city, my city
It takes many forms
In people and plants
Vines and beggars
Angry men and sour women
The worst of the best people
And the best of the worst
Poets and great minds

And So I Return
I hate the outdoors
The February sleet turns to March mud
A murky pallet of miserable grays and viscous browns
As I climb
