enough

you are late in
arriving. early
in leaving.
you are
going places
that you don't
want to be.
your life is
full of compromise
and adjustments,
uneasy in
the chair you
are forced to
sit in. at what
age, can you say
no, i can't
do this anymore?
at what point
do you say
enough, i don't
want to, but
thanks just
the same, no
more.
