Maybe it should all burn...

Another day

With nothing to show for it

The sock still in it's spot

Right in the corner

The resident roach

Still scurries about

Do not even remember

When I last took a shower

Even my bathroom floor

Is dry as a bone

Is this how life should be lived?

What's that saying?

Light a fire

Under one's ass

Maybe that's what I need

Set it all on fire

At the very least,

I will have less shit around

Maybe when I come out

The other side of the flames

I shall be scarred but clean
