| Drowsy Boy |
| by Damion Hamilton |
| I have a hard time getting
Going, I知 such a drowsy boy Other people, it seems are alert Too alert, and in the moment And I知 just a drowsy boy The days go by so fast Whether I知 doing nothing Or working This drowsy boy has a hard Time getting to work on time, This boy has a hard time being anywhere So slow, this boy dwells on things A pen A lovely bosom Sparrows attacking a hamburger Wrapper So many things to dwell on In rooms of crowded people I have a hard time following conversations I知 just a drowsy boy I can sit on a couch for hours Staring at things of no consequence I知 often wondered why was no good in Sports in school, say when A ball was hit or thrown, I would Often be looking somewhere else or thinking About something else Or while sitting in class listening To the teacher reading, my mind Often wondered I watch Fridays and Saturdays fade Away by not doing anything I often think of doing things, But I often run out of time Libraries close early, the post office close Early and drug stores, trains stop running After a certain time This drowsy boy need to catch up With everyone else This boy needs more time To do things Hopefully someday He値l be quick and alert |
