Nothing To Say

Nothing To Say


What can I say?

The sun hangs there with nothing to do

Just out of reach burning with raw desire

What can I do?

Taxes?

No thank you

If I stay in bed who will take my place?

Some one has to drink the coffee

Till the soil, plant the crops

Turn the Earth on its axis once in a while

Watch the sun come and go from the sky

What do you say when there is nothing to say?

Good-bye

Half of this is my holiday life, laying, loafing, watching the world go by, the other half flew straight over my vacuous head.
