Success

Success, a much hyped word today Everybody speaking about it here and far away We have TED talks, gurus, life coaches all churning out the same stuff Why has it become a word that we all have to snuff People trying to outdo each other in all avenues Cant we just stop and instead greet other bienvenue Gone are the days when life was simple and just a 9-5 job And work place another extended family cob We clung to each other and wished each other well It was a time when there was no Apple or Dell Life was a routine meant to love and cherish Have we become more loud and garish Has technology made us robotic nerds Looking for the next best video clip or something absurd Movies are tagged with sex, violence and nudity Have we gone from quiet wisdom to stupidity. Success you have become quite excess Just leave us a little while to catch out breaths and suck less.
