Mountain ranges
Dusty heat
Town of angels
At your feet
Lonely surfer
On a bike
Whizzes by you
In the morning light

You leave your house
On an ordinary day
Tip your hat off
To a neighbour on his way
To an office park
In downtown LA
And you yourself have hopes
To get things done today

Paper tiger
On the wall
A Chinese dragon
Down the hall
Carpet fibers
To the lab
This celestial body
Needs a nap

Curtains up
On an ordinary day
You check the time
On a digital display
You pull a shirt out
From the pile from yesterday
You have hopes
To write anything today

Lonely surfer
