What have you done

Besides focus on yourself

Living a life of selfish fun

All things important left lying on a shelf

What have you done so spectacular or worthy of bragging

Saved big and horded as much as you could

While others have suffering that's bagging

Did you really do the things you should

What have you done that you'll be remembered by

Other than out your name on a building so tall

While you failed to stop things from causing innocent's to die

It's not a wonder where on the cliff waiting for mankind to fall

What have you done that anyone cares about

Besides make an ass of yourself in this life

And at the end nobody will remember you, no matter how you shout

You did nothing to matter to others in a world of strife

What have you done...

About the Creator

Jason Morton

From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
