Why We Are Lazy . . .

Because the future goes to the slipshod

and the slothful and the bovine,

because the dim bulbs get the fleshy pulp

and the brights settle for the rind.

This is why! This is why! This is why we are lazy!

Because it's the boors and dinks

and dullards who always get the prizes

and it's the virtuous who get the shaft

and the chaff that always rises.

This is why! This is why! This is why we are lazy!
