Life
Life is a tube of pringles
You’ll gobble it down.
Life is a tube of toothpaste
Half-empty and misshapen.
Life is a tube journey
Sweaty and uncomfortable.
Life is a tube of tomato paste
Delicious and blood red.
Life is a tuba
Metallic and loud.
Life is a tube of pringles,
Salty and moreish.
Life is a thick plank
Life is a quick wank
Life is a five-ingredient recipe
Life is short.
Life is a lingering smell
Life is a taxi ride to the hotel
Life is going very well thanks for asking
Life is dull.
Life is a book
Life is the chances you took
Life is all the hands you shook
Life is formulaic.
Life is maroon playdo
Life is mashed potato
Life is mostly pretty good these days
Life is malleable.
Life is a humid night without a fan
Life is a marble statue of a Great Man
Life is an overnight shift
Life is hard.
Life is a chat and a beer
Life is a soundwave hitting your ear
Life is happening right now right here
Life is exciting.
Life is green or red or maybe blue
Life is a brown leather shoe
Life is a seriously bad bout of flu
Life is odd.
Life is a four-stop bus journey
Life is the wheels on a hospital gurney
Life is a pot of honey
Life isn’t free.
Life is a chair by the fire
Life is a country cottage for hire
Life is a funeral pyre
Life is warm.
Life is a one syllable word.
Life is nothing if you’re not hea
