Cantilena

Every morning I wake up at 6 am
Some people are up much earlier
Others later at nine or even at ten
I drive a big white truck
Some people a banged up car
Others a Ferrari telling me I suck
If you have read this far
wondering about this cantilene
I'm wishing all to find inner peace
living life healthy, free and serene
Not to listen to a society that
Tells us that to be happy
We must have what others got
Some have a smile
Some have a gun
Others wanna be a thug
Then die shot with a slug
Some show their kids
The way to the bars
To heal their own scars
Others show them how to spot a falling star
Telling them where, when and how far
