I've to go away
myself to renew:
it's too crowded
and noisy here
life doesn't ring true
with voices clamouring
to be heard and slogans
being painted
in public walls
and 'save the world' gurus
are unwilling
to cease
their uncompromising

I've had enough
of exhortations
which are bursting
my ears-
if to myself
I wish to be true
I'll have
to withdraw
from this cacophony
to find myself
