Fast-Paced
Often you reel, stagger and fall
in the dizzying whirl of complexities
of a fast-paced, competitive city life;
you think you've got to rush along
armed with complicated schemes
or else, you'll end up very dead;
you may take counsel from water
that has just been poured into a glass,
filling, taking the form of the latter,
patiently waiting for tiny particles
that float or swirl in it to settle down,
as silent sediments at its bottom.
