To Be Conscious of the Conscientious
In my hands, I hold a list
What to do, where to do it, when to do it
Everything I want to accomplish
Written before me in organized text
Check off the next item
Add another two items for every one completed
When will it end? Can I schedule when it will end?
Pained by my own desires to be organized
In a world controlled by never-ending chaos
I take a deep breath
Making a conscious effort to experience mindfulness
Feeling the air in my lungs
Cool and crisp, yet hardly unique
Slowly exhaling
Experiencing a brief pause
I look down at my list again
Tranquility, Inner Peace, Momentary Relaxation
Check... Check
Underline Momentary... Check
