Although I truly empathise <br /> with your desire to fantasise. <br />It is my task to emphasise. <br /> <br />Although you day dream happily <br /> escaping from reality <br />Your must return eventually. <br /> <br />There is one rule all must obey <br />although you would much rather stay. <br />Your fantasies must fade away. <br /> <br />You know that what I say is true. <br />Although your job is boring you. <br />It’s something that you have to do. <br /> <br />So save your dreams for when you sleep <br />and have no deadlines you must keep. <br />If you do not the price is steep. <br /> <br /> You will get fired right away <br />you’ll have no job and get no pay <br />But you’ll be free to dream all day. <br /> <br />If you are wise you’ll listen to <br /> the sound advice I’m giving you <br /> and do what you are paid to do. <br /> <br />You cannot live on fantasies <br /> you have to pay for groceries. <br />That’s one of life’s realities. <br /> <br />22-Dec-08 <br /> <br />http: // blog.myspace.com/poeticpiers<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/harsh-reality-for-m-lady-fay/
