Measured in spoonfuls
progress imperceptible
Still feel the angst of
no-time-to-breathe lifestyle
pressured from within
to get-it-done
spend unavailable resources
ruminating solutions
push against the walls
with little to show
surrender to impotency
and wait for the next surge.
One Woman's Quest 
I can so relate to measuring progress in spoonfuls! And it seems to be going from tablespoons to teaspoons rapidly. Enjoyed this post, VJ.

I can relate to – “pressured from within
to get-it-done”.
I’ve always been a get-it-done person and probably always will be. Too late to worry about it now. LOL

OH dear, it sounds as if something has really annoyed you. Then again, it could just be a poem and not real at all.
