But you did see the notice, didn't you? Arthur Dent : Oh, yes. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign outside the door saying "Beware of the Leopard." Ever thought of going into advertising
Deadlines threaten but i ignore
If I'm relaxed death won't occur
Life is a race but must i run?
Blinded deadlines stares in disgust
Lets have some fun
I'll have some fun
I'm a poet too man. Dunno if I'm any good honestly, but I just write, and hope I get the message across. Check them out...I posted a couple on my feed.
For me this poem has a second layer or interpretation:
Most of these words could also be the conversation with a person in the speaker’s life whom they keep putting off spending time with, treating the visitor’s presence as a surprising intrusion, because of the speaker’s focus on work deadlines.
Procrastination, my old friend
I’ve come to wrestle you again
Because the urge, softly creeping
Stole my focus while I was dreaming
And the plans that were planted in my brain
Still remain
Lost within the sound of silence.

Autoplay
An obsessive race of heightened fright
To a misty world beyond my sight
Did i indulge in toxic wine?
Just when will i reach my deadline?
If I'm relaxed death won't occur
Life is a race but must i run?
Blinded deadlines stares in disgust
Lets have some fun
I'll have some fun

thank you!
Love your work
I’ve come to wrestle you again
Because the urge, softly creeping
Stole my focus while I was dreaming
And the plans that were planted in my brain
Still remain
Lost within the sound of silence.
