Drowning - Donna Shomer

And I am
There is no question about it
Drowning in the restless sea of cliché
Merciless thrum of academia
Relentless push/pull of time
Stench of gravity
Self-absorbed I am
Rife with possibility
I am Being – which is only
The beginning but I am tired –
Tired.

  1. I love the way the first line comes out of the title, and I love 'merciless thrum of academia' and 'stench of gravity.' Wonderful stuff!
