Fleeting thoughts
Fleeting, floating
Uncertain, disconcerting
Imperfection and uncertainty
How do you ground it?
Don’t waver, people are looking
Don’t look around, they are judging
Don’t be yourself
You are not allowed
Who is to say
You are not allowed?
Make your own way
You must, you say
The work, the lists and the games
The commitments and the people
All consuming and distracting
Plans neglected, now hovering
Something lost
What is gained?
Fleeting and floating
All in vain
