The Age of Worry

by Henry Bladon / June 16th, 2019

You worry about your lifestyle and whether you are matching up.
You worry about upsetting people or whether you are being offensive.
You worry about climate change your carbon footprint.

You worry about your privacy in the internet era.
You worry about securing the approval of others.
You worry about missing out.

You worry about how much you are worrying.
You worry. You worry. You worry.
