Modern Life

  
Living in America today is like living on a train
That’s speeding toward a distant cliff.
The scenery is going by so fast you can hardly see it,
And when you do spot something nice
Its miles away before you can get the lens cap off your camera.
Once in awhile you just need to get off.
Walk around. Skip a stone. Sit in the grass.
If you get bored, don’t worry.
The next train comes in fifteen minutes.
