New life vs Old existence

What happened to the life we used to live
It came and went like an overnight dream 
It's funny how complacent we all became with existence as it was 
Get up shit teeth eat chat teach eat chat sleep 
See people, go anywhere a passport to anywhere 
Monies in the bank 
Spend on new clothes, petrol, food drinks and holidays 
5 days a week in a classroom 
Students your audience 
Advice and wisdom 
Planning and marking 
Sometimes stress and sometimes not 
Late nights, training, phone calls, no time to return them, unread messages, looking at posts about food and nandos and nights out and heavy heads
Charity runs, new cars, new houses, new pets 
Glamour and riches 
Showing off
Busy and more busy
No time 
Disrupted sleep from loud cars driving too fast down roads with noone walking 
Just more cars and more traffic 
Asthma on the rise from the environment 
Germs and heart problems 
Death rate increases 
More buses more cost more trains less space 
People everywhere 
Like sardines in a tin
Pushed up against the unknown 
Germs clean people or not 
Try on clothes
Try before you buy
Who else did that
Who else been here 
Who else's hands? Clean? Washed?
Never stopped to think about it


Mortality is not something to forget 
Life is fragile 
Cars break people in their speeds
Their lifestyle dosing up the brains and filling mind with issues and adrenaline which then falls out into people 
Hate and fights and conflict 


It's all gone down the plug hole now though 
Life has changed 
Existence is different 
Nothing we can do 
Less cars 
No speeding 
Different reasoning for death 
Health first, luxuries take a sleep 
Luxury items change 
No longer a car, but a new plant 
No longer eating out but families cooking together 
All involved 
All walking 
All getting steps 
Money is now monitored 
Life is different 
For better or for worse?
Only time will see

Keep chin up
Embrace and change 
Be the best you, you can be
