NEGLECT THE WORLD
Inspiration when it comes
Comes slowly
Or not at all
The light goes out
The timing seems off
The process becomes undone
The drive to the hospital
Was like a vacation
Somehow I likened it to a peaceful respite
From coping from whatever came
that needed coping with
The job applications ignored
It's not like they have to tell you why
They don't want you
These seconds count
Stolen as they are
Watch over me
As I stand
As I attempt
to please the highest order
And neglect the world
Comes slowly
Or not at all
The light goes out
The timing seems off
The process becomes undone
The drive to the hospital
Was like a vacation
Somehow I likened it to a peaceful respite
From coping from whatever came
that needed coping with
The job applications ignored
It's not like they have to tell you why
They don't want you
These seconds count
Stolen as they are
Watch over me
As I stand
As I attempt
to please the highest order
And neglect the world
