Silence and Slow Time
These days when worry is all about money,
It’s a veritable crime
To not be concerned more about
Declining silence and slow time.
Silence refreshes tired minds
As slow time gives new life to confused brains.
Together they provide perspective to pressures
That cause unwarranted strains.
Such strains like worry about the next raise
Or rumors circulating these days…
Or a car versus the one parked next door
Or rehashing events long passed before.
Major problems now demand something new.
Attitudes and methods never before in purview.
Long term solutions traversing borders and politics;
Each strategy well thought out, devoid of quick fix.
Silence is mother of this kind of thought.
Slow time ensures that these ideas are not overwrought.
These treasures are all too rare indeed today,
And why mankind seems to have lost its way.
