Old Slow
i've been moving
but it seems so slow
in comparison to
the time
when you get mega-thrust ...
into the age of : near-instant-microwave-satisfaction
the fact that life can be "like molasses"
doesn't compute
in a social spectrum
according to the they
but
slow's in my own interest
should i ever be
non-quick
in the compliance of another's
expectations
who have no regard to individualism
as it is the individuals
who make this world
a colorful existence
not the popcorn people from the media
-who explode incorrectly
in your face
so then
let it be ...
i'm taking my slow assed time
an old type of slow
