nothing worth doing

nothing worth doing
should be taken lightly
the dude said work
and i guess i'll get to it sprightly
we're in this basement
a common placement
perhaps a peculiar arrangement
one forged on former estrangement
the family is tenuous
but together for now
and the aunt and uncle
seemed to have a cow
one called me down
the other called me a fighter
perhaps those may be
but there's more to this writer
get to know me
if you dare
you'll learn a bit
if you care
and then we'll see
what you're made of
was that absense
properly explained, gov?
the kid we left
kinda weird
paid for gas
left as we feared
moaned on the phone
and mimiced my girl
makes me angry
as the sails unfurl
what a fool
and a stranger
tries to call me friend
but he's more like danger
stay far away
and never call again
that seems to be
my own personal omen
no more of that
dysfunction retreat
boston calls
and so we drive east
