Eight-line Poems

For Instance

Instant oatmeal, instant coffee,
instant gratification on the run,
instant reward for instant opus,
instant meal in instant making,
instant life in instant’s dreaming,
instant desire meets instant thought,
instant moments rattle on by
to end in instant insignificance.
