Your poem touches that happens in this fast paced world that celebrates multitasking. The word "again" works as a rhyme if pronounced with a long "a" sound (usually pronounced with a short "a"). Best wishes.

This one-six-one, In Over-drive, pretty much explains the state of modern living where everyone is given the capability of doing a dozen things at once and is asked to complete thirteen tasks. Nice poem.

I love it. I am having a hard time with this. I thought it would be easy and it's been way harder than I thought, so my hat's off to you for this excellent work.

Such fermentation of ideas! Such distillation! After all that bubbling and seething, you have delivered a few drops of 'the true, the blushful Hippocrene' enabling you to sink back into a 'drowsy numbness'. May you have sweet dreams of Members Cents tumbling into your coffers as a result of this draining poetic experience.

LOL, nice entry, the artwork is a brilliant representation of a brain in overdrive. It's a bit disturbing though to see the head opened by a can opener :O Best wishes for the contest.
Bless you
John
