The Day Pushing To A Bounce

Somedays tell you everything you need to know.

Nobody follows the unpopular

So you better be pretty or fit in

If you're not one of the special

You are done before you begin


Not a teacher

Nor a feminine type

Not from the alt left

Or particularly into social hype


So when hearing do this

And you haven't actually looked

The truth becomes pretty clear

Even those well loved can't get hooked


And at the end of the day

It's all really so insane

The work put in never did pay off

And it was time spent racking the brain


So when the clock strikes time

Don't stop while others pounce

This way or that

It's time to bounce

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.
