Poetry Corner: Bud Light “Treadmill”

August 3, 2018 by Bud Light Leave a Comment

A rat in a trap; A squirrel in a cage
A donkey on a treadmill, turning a milstone;
Going nowhere, because
There’s nowhere to go
They couldn’t go even if there was, because
The situation won’t let them.
People are very much like that. How sad about that.
Too bad for them; It shouldn’t be that way.
