the urgency is burning

the urgency is burning
my flesh is trembling
how can i stay sane in these days
where one’s voice is scarcely heard

my nerves stand on end
how can i stay focused 
when all the energies of people 
mill around me?
i feel trapped in this labyrinth
losing my mind 
ánd my creativity
i can only see as far as this poem
  - it sits ninety centimetres from my eyes -
how sad that i do not see any further

but in the next blink 
i see beyond this blinding page
right into the shining metaphor
that is strung around my tongue
and suddenly 
i can 
breathe 
into 
infinity
