Sailors Grow Weary of the Wind
Therapists get tired of listening
Sailors grow weary of the wind
Parents are exhausted by their children
Losers become bored with trying to win.
Editors come to resent their writers
Pundits struggle to trust the news
Police burn out on process
Palestinians sometimes can’t care less about Jews.
Dogs lose interest in playing
Cats choose to avoid the sun
Doctors can’t help but feel indifferent
The most faithful reach a point where they’re just done.
Chewing gum will lose its flavor
The greatest meal will turn to shit
Life has its rhythms
Which is entirely the point of living it.
