The spring brings milk and honey
The season of love and birth
But we crave lust and money
And forget each moments worth
When? When will the world learn
How to expect a favor in return?
Why does everything we do
Need not benefit us too?
What’s wrong with spinning a lie,
Especially, if it’s how you get by?
I feel like you look for messages engraved in the cliche
i don't like it
but it seems to work.
this is straight forward.
i miss my metaphors
tired and hungry I can't help but wonder
This imperatively imparted knowledge
This so-called apparent benefit to the scholarly mind
-to a decent life
This invisible influence on material happiness
