going nowhere fast
listen there is so much more to learn
before moving on to the next plane
but for some reason you’re stuck in a field of mud
not one soul within shouting distance
when the rains come you’ll be able
to make your way to a better place
but in the meantime there is so much to consider
now that you’ve scored more time
moving forward or back matters not
it’s the constant motioning you seek
as if you’ve acquired the wings of a hummingbird
now so very busy but going nowhere
march two thousand twenty-one
