marker

the streets hustle and bustle
Imitates the chaos of emotions
like a live stream
of this life
buffering still just moments ahead
when it reaches the marker
will it pause at the most exiting part?
Is the connectivity strong enough to finish the load in time
or must it all restart?

The buzzing lights reflect the hope that bites
Into the despair, a refreshing repair
in a deep breath to bathe in polluted air
exhale all that is stale and walk the path
unfolding just seconds in precedent
as destiny downloads the chosen incident
Is the connection fast enough to arrange
the ones and zeros before the marker?
buffering, buffering, buffering
So many bodies, so many lives
so much poverty,so much traffic
server overload, cannot complete download
but still,
I will walk the hard road
for i am ecstatically connected
perpetually online, one line
to the cosmos.
