    Poem Commentary

    We all come in and go out the same way- Try not to be swayed- It's how it's portrayed.

    Enjoy The Show

     Who ever said life's suppose to be fun
    It's just ways to pass time until it's all done
    Some ways take our minds
    Some make us bums
    Just puppets that dance to the beat of the drums
    Some ways make us work until nothing is left
    But a paycheck, some perks, & a cubicle desk
    Some make us better than everyone else
    Until we're all alone with our wealth & our health
    Some ways get us locked up
    Some get us knocked up
    One things for sure
    Most ways leave us boxed up
    Our own little life
    The white picket fence
    With the kids and a wife
    Maybe a tent 
    A good hunting knife
    Some will pay rent til the day that they die
    Looking back at time spent still questioning why
    But with all of the facts
    There's one thing I know
    It's fun to relax
    And just watch the show

    Indeed it is!!! A nice deep poem, with a simple rhyme scheme, bringing importance to it's meaning instead of to its style. Very nice. I truly enjoyed it. The life people lead is based on the way the believe it will go. Sometimes this is good... Sometimes bad... But, in the end, all we got is how hard we tried, and how much we enjoyed it. So... Like you said, "There's one thing I know//It's fun to relax//And just watch the show."

    "There's one thing I know It's fun to relax And just watch the show"— this ending to a somewhat dismal list of life's loneliness is masterfully placed and delivered. My feelins exactly! Bravo!!!

    Thankyou very much Dah! I will be checking out you site very soon!

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
