It seems frivolous The frailties of humanity Wasted potential Perpetuated by sleep deprivation And dehydration Foggy eyed mouth dried Dumbed down Overworked Overstressed Then in the ground What a waste To waste away In such a dreadful state With only the hours between now and death To enliven your dying breath Perhaps there are better things to do
