The Zephyr

Excited, expectant

And

Countless halts

Before the

Full length mirror

To look

Pretty.

Zillions of zappy moments

Spent in a

Zealous pursuit

Of finding

Success.

Printing

Mini statements

From the ATM

Needlessly

And

Checking them

Over and over again

To account

For

Every single penny

Spent.

Racing against

The clock

And

Work

Consuming

Nights and shifts

And

Weekends too.

Somewhere

In the middle

Of all this

Quandary,

This

Trivia,

You walk

Out

And feel

The zephyr,

You hear

Of

People retiring,

People joining,

People falling sick

And dying

And

It seems

So

Inconsequential.

All this

Running around

In business suits.
