Laziness

Everyone is lazy

They can't see past the hazy

Cloud, smoke covering them thickly

Into an irrational being that is sickly

A being; paled white

Diseased and losing sight

"I'll put this off for another day," they say

Refusal is where the insanity lay

Refusal to work is sad

Later, you'd wish you had

What must be done

About these needles that are spun?

Needles that prick, needles that bury

Metallic refusal that's in a hurry

The metal clangs

Through the mind; its point hangs

Sharp like a sword

Cutting through the cord

Stop, and think

Let the logic sink

Down through the waves

Your mind saves

A blue light flashes

Through the night's lashes

You're puffing gray smoke

The wind's coldness; it will soak

Your hands are weary; stiffened from the rails

Of the plow; you look past the sky's icy hails

"I should do this now."

"I should do my work"; these thoughts are ready to plow

Through Life; scraping off its muddy paths

Save yourself from bad aftermaths

The mud coats the icy ground

Making the path smoother and browned

I say again, stop and think

Let the logic sink

Down through the waves

Your mind saves
