Wasting Time On Planet Earth
You are wasting your summer
reading books
They said.
You are wasting your time
going to law school
They said.
You could be enjoying your life.
You could be working
and earning money
and spending it.
They said.
You are wasting your time
lying in the sun
relaxing by the shore
going to the movies
playing with computers
buying gadgets
going out with that woman
watching football on TV.
They said.
What a waste of the precious time
you have on the planet
They said.
No time is ever wasted.
I said.
