there's a pushing

driving

wanting

endless

requisite for success.

"Do well," they say

be

someone.

I am someone.

I breathe I think I sleep

when I can.

success they say.

that's the key.

key to what?

more

driving

wanting

endless

define yourself define your future

8 hour chunks of passing days

devoted to being society

and society being part of you

but that isn't bad

not for everyone

success they say

I can do that.

but I'll do it on my

own

terms.

I'll eat toast for dinner

and spaghetti for breakfast

and maybe I won't do

one

thing

for 8 hours straight.

Maybe I will.

But right now isn't about that.

right

now

I'll be young while I can be.

Responsible if I must.

but always

no matter the

driving

wanting

endless

Always successful.
