Analysis of Everything About Life
It's not about the poem per se
Nor the ballad or the play
Not the hook of a jingle
Or a sonnet that creates a tingle
It's not about the songs of love
Nor water reflecting the moon above
Not about romantic books
Or freshness of beautiful looks
It's not about the singing birds
Nor the elegance of our words
Not an idea to be thought
Or an item that can be bought
It's not about a certain thing
Nor can it be of anything
Simply put I must admit
Everything is just about IT
