the day started
in a hazy mess
that spread
like a germ
no time
for the usual wake
only time
for an unusual pace
ready……
set……….
go…………. into motion
slow
slow
slow…….down
before you drown
in an abyss
of the forgotten
collect
what thoughts
are scattered about
don’t shake
them off
instead
reap the wisdom
that hides
between the lines
learn from lessons
not yet contrived
slow
slow
slow……..down
before you drown
in the rush
can’t push back time
set your step
to a stress-free stride
realize
you can break
the pattern
escape
………….inside
a mindful getaway
lift the haze
be germ free
ready……
set……….
go………….
into
…………. slow motion
