Attention

Attention! Attention! Attention is fresh. Attention is ripe. Attention is fast and ready to bite. Attention is crisp. Attention is clear. Attention is loud and firm and proud. Attention is strong. Attention is cross. Attention speaks and stops the lot. A - ten - sion. A - ten - sion. It keeps you on your toes. A - ten - sion. A - ten - sion. It holds you on the edge. It's quicker than that. It's stronger than that. An instant it can attack. Stop what your doing and listen to me, it says with its eyes and teeth. Stop what your thinking and think like me, important words will be. A shock you reel. A shock you feel, because of its urgent appeal. A sudden adjourn. A sudden discern, you feel it hot, it burns..... Attention doesn't care. Attention isn't a teddy bear. Attention isn't slow. Attention isn't square. Attention isn't smooth or fluffy to hold. Attention is nothing to mould. Attention instead can scold. Attention is dangerous careless, captivating bold. be careful what it knows. be careful where it goes. be careful where it's meant. and use it like its gold.
