considerations

so we're rushing about like mad bunnies
headless chickens more like perhaps
all up in the 10th floor of one of the tallest buildings in the vicinity
all up to the 12th floor
there's a glass wall separating our madness from the outside
 
its a vista of village houses
coconut trees
fruit trees
a pond here
a pool there
people travelling about on foot
people travelling about on motobikes
in the horizon are the towers of the city
 
we're mad headless chickens with jobs
outside people are walking about at a leisurely pace
someone is even flying a kite
given what i've eaten in the vicinity..
and given what i've been told
these people are probably not getting very fresh produce as they would eat everything
and keep anything that couldn't be finished for the next day
and the day after
if they could
 
but yet...
a job versus a kite...
and they get by
 
makes you wonder what you need a freakin job for...
