The Drums Beat More Quickly

What is happening to time? I used to be able to think, to consider, to dream. The beat of my own drummer paced me, graced me. Now I am driven by outside drums. They drown that inner beat, Ever louder, ever more insistent, ever quicker. Oh, for the grace of a quiet place, Where I can hear my own drum, And think, and consider, and dream.

Peace
