I thought about retirement
A long term kind of expire-ment
Kind of opting out on life
Definitely running away from strife
In this overwhelming city
I went to a party full of pity
I was the only guest
It was done at my behest
I thought I could go cold turkey
From running herky-jerky
But the side effects are awful
I’m eating too much falafel
I know that’s a suck ass rhyme
Sorry but this is my whine
My aches and pains are annoying
Because they’re preventing me from enjoying
Running slow and scuffing shoes
Running where I want to choose
Creating dirty clothes
Dealing with yesterday’s woes
So one more day of anguish
Before I attempt to vanquish
My sins
