Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Growl

getting
more and more
protective
particular 
and selective
with my time

truth is
i refuse
to have others decide
how to squander 
what I have left

life is too short
to waste

Caren Krutsinger June 21, 2019 at 6:36 AM I am so selfish with my time, it is ridiculous. I will not meet one friend at a time anymore, preferring to invite all nine of them and "get it over with". Line Gauthier June 21, 2019 at 7:56 AM Great solution. Time is so limited and we have to save some of it for ourselves. Too much to do. We have to slow down eventually.
