Dry

Morning to night

all things measured

cut and dried

Sunset to sunrise

dreams, nightmares

vying for a place between winks

Failures, losses

rigor and monotony

waiting to pounce

Attempts, accomplishments

joy and bliss,

ringing empty

Everything gray,

sober and solemn

as an artifice

Days without humour

will sure a bad joke be

to survive life
