The Easy Way Out

June 7, 2011

The easy way out.
Duck the clout and measure
The distance to get out.

Don’t hesitate and ponder
What it’s all about.
Just duck
Duck and get out.

The reasons are many
The answers few
Don’t worry what’s right
Worry about you.

Survive another day
Cause it’s all about you
That’s what it’s about.
Take the easy way out.

~ Patrice
