All A's, But No Success

A rotting mouth and a sore ass,

A slouched back while passing gas.

A lit screen of endless colour,

Acting as an icecream parlour.

Attention is given without a thought,

A way to pass time is what he sought.

All the while, he was wasting his time,

Assuming his life, was worth just a dime.

All the people around him, speed right on,

As if his whole life, had just gone.

A cobweb sways in the corner of his room,

All because he's too lazy, to grab a broom.

At last the day has come to an end,

Arms in the air and trying to bend.

A poem he writes, while tucked in bed,

About the day, that he seemed dead.
