Headspins

Inside our minds the world keeps spinning faster,
since the internet sets the pulse of change;
thoughts keep driving into newer ideas,
and hardly anyone knows how the right rhythm is arranged.

We speak of progress and future,
of chances, of movement and light;
yet many stand circling their questions
and still cannot see the way out in sight.

Machines begin learning to reason,
while humans just try to move faster each day;
and while everything else accelerates forward,
our inner balance slowly slips away.

So heads keep spinning with possibilities,
with noise, with doubt and with gain —
and somewhere between confusion and promise
this restless condition remains: Headspins.

For freedom still asks us to breathe again,
and progress still asks us for sense;
and sometimes the clarity life is missing
appears in the quiet moments
deep inside our own presence.

Our planet keeps turning at a constant speed —
it’s our heads that spin,
for they’re the ones making the music indeed.

Love
Toby
