    Rat Race

     See them scatter 
    Watch them hurry
    Scramble about in an exasperated flurry

    Rush about here
    Run around there

    Appointments, Work, Children's activities
    The rat race of life becomes a disease
     
    No time to admire the simple things in life
    How we are all so well trained

    Finding our way through the maze every day
    Each seeking out the cheese

    How true, how true! Most of the time I feel that we are the ones in the cages. Cool little ditty. A.T.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
