humdrum blues

beware the snare of the humdrum blues,
impending doom will envelop you,
apathy, boredom- hard to ignore them,
tough to sort through,
the ever monotonous humdrum blues

melancholy… forever sad,
never fulfilling the dreams you had,
day after day it's all the same news,
stuck in the muck
of the humdrum blues…
