stopping the world

somewhere
along the line, sports have lost
their appeal,
i have dwindling interest
in celebrities too,
or the next blockbuster
movie.
television in general
has jumped
the track.
newspapers
and magazines are nearly useless.
everything and everyone
is in your face
or phone
nonstop, you can't
escape
the world anymore.
too much of anything
is not a good thing.
time to tune out.
see how long i can last,
maybe a few
hours, at most.
