Tedium Vitae - The Black League

I’m not here looking for HAPPINESS

I can do well enough WITHOUT

Everything I need from this LIFE

Just one tiny lil' bit of PEACE and QUIET

Nothing GLORIOUS about it

Nothing to CELEBRATE or BOAST

I don’t remember when I first stopped CARING…

I don’t mind.

I just take it as it COMES

I’m afraid it is more than just a PHASE

And I feel it is not a PASSING thing

It’s been right there ENCODED INSIDE me

Since the day that I LANDED on this EARTH!

Nothing GLORIOUS about it

And nothing to CELEBRATE or BOAST

I don’t remember when I first stopped CARING

But I don’t mind.

I GO with the FLOW
