poor grades
grouchy teachers
exclusion from social group
Dateless weekend
Entropy
Laundry Saturday; dirty again Friday
Water flows till same level; then it can work no more
Wasting youth
Marriage partners too preoccupied to patch things up
State of our country
Relationship between nations
Took up the flute again
Randomness of international events
Lack of common purpose
Friendship, family, and economics fall apart
Children's rooms get messy
Wood rots
Metal rusts
People wrinkle
Mountains wear down
Flowers wither
Nuclei of atoms decay
Rundown subways
Worn out sidewalks
Torn down buildings
Cars break down
Refrigerators conk out
Need for root canal
Windows leak
Babysitters fail to show
Hair turns gray
Typewriters wear out
Houses need paint
Need for glasses
Sneakers develop holes
