Life passes at a breakneck rate.
Brisk as text messages.
Time only for the executive summary.
The Dummies’ Guide.
The abridged audio download.
The Dow-Jones average.
The brief diversion
of the Breaking News.
The quick synopsis.
The cursory look.
The no-frills stats.
The FAQs.
Reading on a need-to-know basis.
The World at a Glance
in the commuter freesheet.
History a volley of bullet points.

Great poem. I like the line "Brisk as text messages."
ReplyDeleteVery appropriate description of the brief and to the point lifestyles that so many lead today.

That's a wonderful poem that reminds me why I am celebrating my retirement with special thanks this year.
