The way to live
Has been documented
Experimented
With narratives supplemented
Augmented, anal retentive
You name it it’s been – so be inventive
The way to live has been given incentive
Overtly hinted
Lamented & misrepresented
It has been regimented
Vented, dented & complimented
Every day to live…
…In martyrdom that never does
Has made the way to live
Harder than it ever was
