Rat-race

Uninspired by what I read
I succumb to route-learning.
The ultimate sin
in the questing for knowledge.

I adhere to the rules
and strive for modesty.
Conforming with the greatest reluctance
I am mediocre.

These feelings of unworth
I dampen with flights of fancy.
Dreaming up worlds with foreign realities
I let my vision blur.

This gloomy, fitful existence
it makes one hunger for an end.
