You Broke the Laws of Motion Speed Limit
Happy now?
Go ahead and be productive
for the sake of productivity
Disregard
resultant physiological impact as
irrelevant
Focus
on the end goal
society commands you idolize
obeisance total and complete with absolute worship
Migraines/depression/cardiac arrythmia/anxiety
worthy offerings to the god of
‘stress yourself to achieve it all’
before you run out of
time/life/chi/brain function
to get that
Mercedes/executive promotion/trophy spouse
Great content filler for your obituary
everyone in attendance
will sit prim and proper through
as the words roll
over glazed eyes in succession
What gloriousness
that you replied to
every single e-mail/text/teams invite/phone call
as the unique energy signature
in the cosmos that is you
presents itself insipid monochrome
reluctant to change a frequency iota
and discover
the universe of being
that is powerful stillness
of pulsating soul
beneath sun
Author's Note:
I may be a statistic of one who has finished work that sits and sits in a folder without seeing the light of day because for the life of me, I can't figure out why I both like and don't like it, but can't bear to throw it away.
This is new.
But it's called growth, perhaps. Sharing something taking up virtual space that you didn't know what to do with, and welcoming other eyes on it rather than keeping it in the darkness.
