Poetry

Slow Down

Rushing, rushing, rushing
Pushing, pushing, pushing
Faster, better, more
Action, achieve, success
Living life at a frenzied pace
Always something else to do
Somewhere else to be
Focused multitasking
Contradiction in being
Goal to strive for
Deadlines to meet
Go, go, go
Society of cheerleaders
Demanding production
Burnt out life
Silent, still, scant
Slowing
…
Slowing
…
Slowing
…
Deadline
…
Deadline
…
Dead………………………………
