Busywork

frustration

clutters my mind

as I run out of time

to do what I need to do

and I know the balance of profits and pleasure

is something that must be measured

but it becomes tiring trying to maintain following through

a nice vacation

would improve this situation

but the limited options make for no escape

and though I am motivated

to be committed

I feel like I’m unable to shape

the routine had become easy

and now it is conflicting

a dreary monotony

that lulls me to sleep

sometimes I think

we just need some spontaneity

before our stress gets too deep
