living underneath a rock
wouldn't be so terrible
without daylight and no clock
i might find preferable

where it's always quiet and cosy
with only raindrops tapping
hidden from those who are nosy
and their constant clacking

where no news is permeating
of all the worldwide violence
and only thing that's for me waiting
is a happy silence

on this idea i am sold
it fits me nice and snug
by my wife i am already called
a lazy useless slug
