"but the work waits- i'm alive at last! and i'm full of joy!"
- sweeney todd, from the song "epiphany" from the musical sweeney todd

The Work Waits

sitting
wasting
should be working
the work is waiting

i've got
things to write
and songs to sing
weight to lose
and lines to learn
and yet and still
the work is waiting

nobody got nowhere
doin nothin
not in this business
not in no business
bummin around
ain't makin no money
ain't makin me
no better
but

still

the work waits.

cuts for luck and scars for freedom
