Today nothing special 

Way too ‘blah’ to move” Gun Roswell

Today like another day, you see

Nothing special happened 

The weather got the best of me

Siting in my chair, feeling crappy


It doesn’t matter if it rains or snows

Even if the cold wind blows

I always find my excuses

Those are better than being a looser


Doing nothing is an art form

If you lazy about without getting scorned

Find what ever reason 

Hell that is hardly treason

Another day gone by

“Today I accomplished absolutely nothing, and that’s fine.” Gun Roswell

Another day, so many plans

Sitting in my chair, trying to figure out the perfect scam

How to get away with doing nothing

And still having to show a little something


My times a waisting

When I am chasing

Too many things on my plate

So why do I hesitate


I want to do everything

And end up doing nothing

Just thinking about it all

Makes my head blow into a giant ball


Trying to do a little at a time

Might, for some, be just fine 

Unfortunately, I am not that kind

I would rather be flying 


Being impatient

Being unable to choose

I will soon end up a patient

With everything to loose


Still sitting, a day gone by

It went on the fly

Oh why oh why can’t I

Enjoy a little leisure time

And do things Mañana

Life?

“Time, is running out, for all of us?” Gun Roswell 

Life, down the drain it goes

Always saying, maybe tomorrow

But that, never happens in time

Waisting time, seems to be just fine


Always the onlooker, never the one with life

Never taking, never giving 

Around myself only spinning 

Frozen, in a box, which never unlocks 


Watching, other people’s accomplishments

Peeping, at their special moments

Feeling the burn and torment 

Trying to shout, but nothing ever comes out


Is this life or purgatory

Or just another wasted story

Nothing gained no glory 

Only strife and continued worry


Looking out from my grey box

Hoping a colourful rainbow to spot 

Wishing for a tiny drop

Instead of a thundery storm

Black

“The colour of my very soul” Gun Roswell

Cat as black as night

Omen or intuition, you must decide

Or, it’s just an animal

Spring Sunday

“Shiny, slow, Sunday” Gun Roswell 

Woke up late

Did not hesitate

To jump outside

Feeling the open wide

Alas the hot air

Felt bad on my fair

And delicate skin

Because I’m a Finn 

And not used to degrees

Over thirty odd seems

So now, sitting

Inside thinking

What could be cool

And no require tools

But there is nothing

To choose from 

Sunday fun

It’s just a pun

Invented by

Someone who denied

The whole day

And went somewhere

Else to play

A never ending repeating loop

“Stuck on a repeating loop? Please, be kind and rewind.” Gun Roswell

A repeating loop 

Was today’s headline scoop

More and more people 

Have been caught in this sequel

Of history repeating

As time has gone cheating

Us all in a movie like staging

Where everyone is pretending

An nothing seems real

And not a moment able to steal

Can we please get a new tape recorder

Where scenes can be shown in order

And at the end only

We can rewind the tape boldly

Easter Time is upon!

It’s that time of the spring, the seasonal pairing of the eggs and things!” Gun Roswell

After all the painted eggs and faces
The little witch nervously paces
Out into the wide world
She needs to fly like a bird

Because
For now
Easter time
Is just to follow!
And the witches’ brooms
Cannot be hollow!

Working for free, really?

“Low paid dead end job without any prospects for improvement” Gun Roswell

Each day, slaving away
No thanks, no rewards
Just expected to score
Working for the man
As best as I possibly can
Always stretching, always reaching
Considered the reliable one
Never any time for fun
More was always expected
And doing that your own life neglected
When its finally time for rest
You had done your very best
The walls came up
With a loud puff
You can take the time, but no pay
That is what they strictly said
If you want pleasure
A time for some leisure
Do it on your own dime
Do not waste our time
Alas, I am now broke
Almost having a stroke
There is no winning 
The corporates just keep on stinging
Do you hear me singing
No, never, I think I will give in
Throw in the towel and start walking
The narrow path
How long can it last
After all?

Scream and Shout, for Coffee

“Not without my coffee, ever!!” Gun Roswell

Drag me by my feet
You cannot let me go without my treat
I can’t even make a tweet
If you won’t give me what I seek

I will scream at out of my fullest lungs
Tease me, and I will stick out my tongue
Shout so hard until there is no doubt
I want, need, have to have my coffee

I will not leave
I will not heave
I will not achieve
I will not be

Without my coffee I am nothing
I cannot function or do anything
I am devastated if I don’t drink
Without that wonderful liquid, I cannot think

Not without my coffee
Never without my coffee
See the pattern forming?
Consider this a warning!

Now, gimme my coffee!

Perfection

“Nobody’s perfect, right?!” Gun Roswell

Welcome, to perfection!
A full life circle in reflection
Leave all your troubles outside
The only rule applied
Before entering the great open wide

Perfection is the emotion you feel
Perfection is the person you love
Perfection is life without care
Perfection is loving yourself

You are now leaving perfection
You only sampled a tiny bit of the selection
Is there something we did to dampen
Any experience you may have wanted
To try out in abundance?

I am not perfect
You are not perfect
Life is not perfect
Perfection
Is just an illusion
