A Life That Lost Its Tune
by Frank Watson
Time dances in tune
When lost at noon
With bills unpaid

And looks gone strewn.


She was an old maid

Whose voice had paid

From travels sore,

A life that weighed.


Now the earth has shut its door,

I think on her jaded core,

A life in slavish cocoon,

To do and do and nothing more.
