Rush

At a time of unfulfilled fantasies
half-dreamed dreams
partly extended arms
almost-felt feelings
not-quite-there yearnings
I wonder.

I wonder if it's all because
we're too tied up with reality
and cynicism
and pessimism
and all the other -isms a Harvard psychologist can think of
to describe the states of humans that are
rushed.

The concrete details
are to be coveted.
The absolute truths
are to be learned.
The core basis of our realities
are to be sought after.

But do I care about life's
So-called everyday struggles?
No.

I like to sit here
And do
Absolutely
Nothing.
