The last two weeks.
Papers are due.
Projects are due.
Time is short.
Routine, disrupted.
Drama is high.
Gears grinding, can’t shift.
Distractions abound.
Emotions high.
Energy running dry.
Brilliance? Obvious.
The mind overly curious.
Practicality, eludes.
Disorganization occludes.
Obsession imbued.
Perfectionism precludes.
Anxiety, exudes.
The pain of self-awareness acute
Ability, always in doubt.
As time runs out…
