Got a Quick Five?

Never be off

Always be on

Always be green

Always checking

Always always always

always be closing

Always be climbing

Always be excelling

Always be propelling

Always be energetic

Always be here

Always be there

Always responding

Always replying

Always online

Always scheduled

Always rescheduled

Always present

Always end up in the same place

Always–

Six feet under

Adorning coffin wood

Dreaming, “finally, barriers for me—

—Always.”
