The Brink of Burnout
By Olive Toran
The needs they do
Exceed, the hands
Capacity
Needs overflowing
Over the arches
Of each
Finger
Spilling over
Onto the ground
Where the
Minds tends now
To tread
The needs
They
Exceed
My hands capacity
So my heart
Chooses
To pick my mind's matter from off
The ground
For a reprise
A moment
Of Stillness
Relaxation
A brief yet profound
Much
Desired
Moments
Seconds I count
Them
Slowly
Moments of the mind
The body
Living in Internal
Peace
