Day 6: Obsession

who would've thought
we'd all stop our lives,
and go back to our families
once the pandemic arrives?

No one has ever thought
of how the first of this year pauses,
or how we'd finally catch up
with movies and bouquets of roses!

Not so surprising to find 
that everyone's obsession has resurfaced
A bit of catching up isn't harmful, right?
Yeah, as long as you live on purpose.

One binge watching a TV series
in the thick of the night
Another gobbling up some books 
with coffee added for delight.

Truly when someone has all the time
they tend to do only what they want,
as they all slowly lose their rhyme
to surface-level things they flaunt.

The slower you breath,
and the calmer you blink,
the better your view is
of a habit that winks.
