No Time

Hurrying about. Without a thought.
No time to worry about silly things.
Ink pen stuck in hair, no barrette.
Who really does care.
No time to rest must finish work.
If it is possible I think my brain hurts.
If I slow down hunger would catch up.
No time for lunch.
Bag of chips a quick munch.
Soon must look completely at ease.
As if it all just seemed to appear.
For they will call silence please.
And the meeting will begin.
Me watching the clock.
Waiting for it to end.

you captured what millions of us go thru everyday, so poignantly and clearly, you know what the funny thing is? none of us want this, all we ever wanted was some love, joy and eternal peace for all of us, not just us and ours, the whole darn tootin planet, thank you...
