What are we doing???

Had to go into the city today on the early train
=Peak Hour=
arrrggghhhh!!!
How can we give up our cars
if THIS is the only option???
i wondered...

And then transported through the city by the crowd
whether i liked it or not, i became a part of the daily =rush= and grind
until suddenly i had the overwhelming feeling that
TIME had ...stopped...

For me

Was i suddenly in one of those futuristic movies
where i had been transported outside of time???

Then sound... disappeared

And just for one moment
i became the observer...

And i SAW the scarily overcrowded, rat race world rushing by me
and i SAW the flickering screens on top of buildings flashing at me
and the skyscrapers so tall that morning mist hid their steeples from me
and i suddenly felt like screaming...

"THIS HAS TO STOP!!!"

On the way home...
there was no-one on the train
and you could hear a pin drop
and i started to wonder
as tears filled my eyes

What are we doing?
