Life So Hectic

Life, so hectic, with time we tread, Against the clock, we race; Sometimes behind, sometimes ahead, We struggle to keep pace. We live in fast forward, And end up disordered, Like a puzzle crossword. So pathetic, Life, so hectic. Quietus 09/21/2021 Quietus - August 2021 Poetry Contest Sponsor: Unseeking Seeker

Yes there are too many pieces to organise Anitha, yet outside of current time is our real home where the truer reality will ever be known.'

It's a positively negating pessimistically optimistic beautiful poem depicting the restlessness of humanity. We do not time the time but time is timing us. Congratulations!

Nicely written, Ani. It seems the old we get, the more hectic it gets. Good luck in the contest. John

Anitha, So true the trials in a poem called 'Life So Hectic'. Still embrace these days, keep pushing the alternative away. Keep at the crossword top to bottom, left to right. -Richard
