Importance

In the lounge,
a thought escaped off my head
like a cold drip

from an air-con unit
protruding out
a wall.

It's lost
in a corridor filled with
consequential people

or who thought they were
altering the sequence
of the line

and the rest
who felt they were
but are self-doubters.

Awakened
by my own consequence,
I rise

to stop this
thought from leaving
as if a queue.
