RAMBLING POETRY
Glimmers of Guilt
Recognising a race with a new face
When I feel like I’m only getting
30 seconds to the minute
—I know
When I just wanna lay down
And hide
— I know
When I want to shout at the world
To wake the f up already and
Stop the crazy injustices
— I know
When I miss moments of simply be-ing
But keep focussing on do-ing
— I know
When I forget to “see” the rainbows of life
— I know
So easy to ride the spiral
Of the not enough trap
A rat race with a new face
A race all the same
No matter the game
To-do’s
Can do’s
Should do’s
Will do’s
Must-do’s
Do — do’s —
Shit…
They sneak in so quietly
Nah — been there done that
I have the “tools”!
I won’t be taken down…
