Enigma

Enigma.          By Phill Williams.

I drink when I'm not thirsty.
Eat because it's time.
Sleep when I should be waking.
Lemon? could be lime.

I drive when I could be walking.
Dream when I'm wide awake.
Speak when I should be silent.
I am real when you are fake.

I've strayed away from nature.
That's what evolution does.
We should eat and sleep when we need to.
Crawl and walk and run.

If we lived on little islands.
No conventions, schools or jobs.
Then the smarmy robbing bureaucrats.
Would have no hold on us.

We could build our little houses.
Pull apples from the tree.
Grow veggies in the garden.
No wars, no tax. Be free.
