Analysis of I worry



I worry
In this well-connected world
I worry
Information overload
In a big hurry
Horrific acts daily
Come in a flurry
It’s enough to overwhelm
And make my sight blurry
And because of this
I worry
I’ve become part of the world’s jury
Doling out judgement
Of my keyboard’s fury
I worry
That I will no longer react
That I will become numb
To the fact
That I no longer care
That I no longer feel
That I no longer care to appeal
To the humanity
We should all share
This is why…
I worry

Eric (and sometimes not)
