This rough and tumble road towards imperfection

Too many alarm buzzing snooze hitting mornings
I eat traffic for breakfast cooking at 79 mph just in case
Slurping that office cereal gauging my day email by email

Technological battle ground ready armed with laser mouse and keyboard
Take the bite off the tongue and let it roll through the fingers
Torrents of immediacy and stagnation of procrastination

Casual conversation and overpriced calories
Blurry eyed MySpace hopes and much needed distraction
Maximizing and minimizing programs to look really important

Furrowed brow and intent stare to avoid chit chat
Deeper thoughts of futuristic successes and adventures
Justifying the present as a necessary evil

Walk to dinner drink some beer hope to make some friends
Smoke a cig and watch the clouds while walking on them
Play the guitar to the fireworks out the window

Wrestle the dog until we've both had enough
Grab the keys and go see the boys over more beer
Avoid much sports detail, but enjoy the moment

Tell the whole world.
