Random Musings

 I'd like to do better about writing every day. If I had assignments and deadlines, I would have structure and goals. Being disciplined without those borders is challenging. Anyway, here is the writing for today. I followed a prompt and this is the result:

“At the end of the day”,
Became a buzz phrase to say,
From pundit to preacher,
It doesn’t go away.

 

I pondered, what did we use to say,
To mean the same thing in another way,
All in all… or when
all is said and done…
Or it boils down to…
Or when you stop and think about it…
 
Catch phrases come and go,
What makes one popular? I don’t know.
I feel either apropos saying the trendy words,
Or resist what feels overdone and absurd.
 
All in all, what is now lit,
Will fade and something new will fit,
When all is said and done,
Now will be then and lose its fun
 
It boils down to keeping in touch,
Choosing to use it, or not so much,
When you stop and think about it,
If it helps understanding, why quit?
 
So at the end of the day,
What more can I say?
