(Messina) (Sicilia 27)

like all things we need too much coffee.
why not espresso,
a children’s play set sized serving?
because we’re big, powerful, and full of ourselves.

like all things we need too much of a sandwich.
why not caprese,
a long john of taste in the same size?
because we’re starving for fulfillment.

like all things we need too much stress.
why not relax,
a state of mind we seldom find ourselves in?
because we’re consumed with our own goals.

like all things we need too much clarification.
why not random,
a boarding of a train without certainty of its destination?
because we’re lost in life, and physically it’d max us out.
