Lallygag

I measured the morning in verse,

As the dawn drew near,

Like a hunter on the veldt.



As thoughts of reason,

And misplaced responsibilities,

Grew within my head.



The coffee cup was sitting,

With the crust of a long day,

As if to be forgotten,

In the rest of bed.



But I knew little of the new day,

Or should I find me there,

And did wander into new prey,

That would keep the hope well fed.



But alas I do now find,

The reckoning be nigh,

For tomorrow is now here,

And my beat nonplussed desire.



So I will no-longer ponder,

The merits that stroll the fields,

And shall like belt that yields,

Upon the girth be spread.
