My friends say I'm too busy to breathe
A most elegant turn of phrase.
As description of my life -- most apt,
For breath does not my hunger praise.
For we are creatures of the fortunes
The fates mockingly our names do call
Why bother breathing, laugh the sisters
If you're just a brick in the wall

This is well crafted. I like both stanzas, actually, including the last line... sometimes referring to a song is a good thing, and obviously it worked, three people recognized it. Good write! <><
