It's the same every day I'm a groundhog Time to get to racing but I'm shaking when I'm waking Feeling sober but Its almost noon can't remember what I've taken What a cycle what fun Until you're entire bodies aching And you're wading through a pool of sweat Quiet nodding in and out and hear the voices fading You know exactly what they're saying smarten up and start praying Alcoholics tell me I'm anonymous And to act the way they say to me Just another day another hour count the minutes til graces me Not another dose another ** is gonna save me Not some new clothes couple bros couldn't change me Work yourself to death try make a lot of money For shelter, warmth, for something in your tummy Then for the real warmth seeping in your tummy It's a traditional leftover from The latin liquor bunny He's like the Easter kind, just got one thing on his mind Except he comes every day feed your body and mind   It's all fine it's all fine Except I basically got brined Head and body now I'm dyin Wouldn't change it for the world, couldn't change my mind

A very sick groundhog
Your mouth like groundhog day,            ever repeating the same melody sang out of tune.    But I'm the Bill Murray learning that every time has to be different           or you just living your weak dreams. Your just a lame re-run cancelled after           the second episode, but you think you famous cos people recognise you for the wrong reasons. Laughing behind your back.        Your girl has had more rubber in her than burnt out tires on the street. Telling you she was saving it for you,    should've  been a used car salesman.    lying about how many miles                                    she'd already done. Ok off subject,   You were yesterday never today..   Always thinking you a star,           but you shooting across my atmosphere. And I'm burning you up. Ye bright for a moment,                  then you just nothing. But ash that I flick off my shoulder.   You dropped and nothing is going to bring you back. As you mouths living          a groundhog day.                                         Learning nothing, but that I'm already on tomorrow, why your mouth living the same *** day.

Bill Murray
If I always relived the same day.                                   The only thing that I'd never get fed up of seeing                                                  is you.

Repetition, Repetition, Repetition
A reminder - It is still winter, We are still in the thick of it, Chains and snowshoes are still requisite, Imbolc and Candlemas are still to pass, Groundhogs hibernate, Tarns still as glass, The tumbling finch song has yet to be sung, and even the false spring, has not yet sprung. So lie still a while longer, Let the chill freeze you through, Warmer days will return in their own time, And so will you.

Still
In deep winter’s chill a brief nudge gets groundhogs, with barely a grudge, to predict the season, but I ask, with good reason, if they differ, who will be the judge?

Groundhog Limerick
A charming flank in think tank went aground today with an exam that writ a woodchuck with alarm that studied a course and back into a hole with a mole yet in a fir tree there that squeaked hello to the fox.

A Marmot Fool
Sleepily and lazily, he makes his way out of the hole that has sheltered him from the cold As he looks both left and right, does he long to see his shadow, which will send him away into slumber for a little while longer, or does he prefer to lounge in the shade of the day? To him, the decision will take only but a moment To reporters, onlookers, and bystanders, only the moment can tell.

The Groundhog's Predicament
The psychiatrist wakes up every morning. Gets dressed and ready to tackle another day at work. Puts on his best suit and tie. Something different, so to not seem repetitive. Matching shoes, cuff links, the works. Has his morning breakfast accompanied with a cup of coffee. Heads out to his occupation while listening to his favorite songs on the radio. Singing along word for word all the way there. Greets his receptionist at the front desk and makes his way to his room. Takes off his coat and hangs it up as he gets ready for the day's appointments. Fast forward. When his day is over, his mind is dead. His face emotionless. His receptionist gone, he has no one to say goodbye to. His radio is silent on the way home. Not one tune played. Not one word uttered. He arrives to his empty home and tosses his jacket on the floor. He sits on his living room couch. And he cries. And cries. And cries. Until there's nothing left for his eyes to let go of He strips, and showers With the disregard for clothing himself, he falls into bed. And into a slumber. Repeat.
