Life Flows

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Jan 26, 2024 

Life.
Flows.
Eddies.
Whirlpools.
White rapids.
Navigation
difficult.
Observe.
Evolving
quickly.
Most
oblivious.
Look away.
Stay
in their
lanes.
Doing
their
jobs.
Don’t
want to
know.
Don’t
care.
Hoisted.
Change
hoisted
onto
their
heads.
Changing
lives.
Forcing
unwanted
directions,
outcomes.
To late,
damage
done.
Should
have
looked.
Should
have
cared.
Oblivion!
