Write a poem To keep from Throwing in the old towel The towel of easy life Not full of strife Or exams, homework, and tests You're not the best yet Just on the way Shrugging off layers of grey And hopeless Knock knock jokes Drowning without a hope In the fields of grain Too numb to actually feel the pain The pain of consistency Complacency Ad agencies And bone shattering realizations It's an odd sensation Bouncing off the walls Smoking water falls Like we're sitting in the sin bin This poem is ending Henned in a caged pen Traveling salesmen Drop safety pins of fraternity logic Don't get sick We could be gone tomorrow But hasn't that always been the case?

Hasn't That Always Been the Case?
