    THE FAST LANE

     THE FAST LANE


    MANY ARE IN THE FAST LANE
    DOING THING THAT WILL BRING NO GAIN
    TAKING LIFE BY STORM
    IT WILL CATCH UP WITH YOU IF YOU DO WRONG
    I RATHER TAKE THING SLOW
    FIGURING IT OUT AS I GO
    THERE ARE MANY CHOICES TO MAKE
    OUR TIME WE SHOULD TAKE
    IN THE FAST LANE A LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE GOT DESTROY
    A LOTS OF THING TAKE AWAY OUR JOY
    POPPING PILLS COCAINE AND CRACK
    THESE THING AFFECT HOW WE ACT
    TAKING ADVANTAGE OF WOMEN AND MEN
    THESE THING HAVE NO GAIN
    HAVING NO RESPECT FOR OTHER
    REMEMBER YOU TO  MAY HAVE A SISTERS OR BROTHERS
    LETTING ALCOHOL RULE YOUR LIFE
    TREATING PEOPLE WITH ANGER AND STRIFE
    IN THE FAST LANE PARTYING ALL NIGHT
    DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT WRONG OR RIGHT
    I LOVE LIFE AND HOPE YOU DO TO
    LIVE A GOOD LIFE IT'S BETTER FOR YOU

    Reading this again it reminds me of the words in Luke 12:15 - "because even when a person has an abundance his life does not result from the things he possesses.” Another inspirational write Clift.

    Simple and true words that will reign forever. If we could all just learn this early and remember it each day and respect all those around us. Great write.... 10.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
