Look - up

Look - up 

Look up, you fool

take notice of it all. 

Look up, you fool 

the skyline scattered with buildings

short and tall.

Look up, it's there

you can taste it in the air.

Look up, look up 

you can take it all in,

the corner, the light

the stair case, the sign 

the odd shaped window

Stop, texting on your phone, 

continuing to moan,

lamenting and venting 

how awful life is.

Put your arms up and your eyes

to the beauty overhead.

Look up, now you fool and enjoy it, 

while you can 

it won't happen, with your

eyes shut in your coffin

DEAD.
