Rushing the Process

Go, go, go

Scroll, scroll, scroll

What is missing

What is lacking

What's the latest trend they're tracking

What's the latest

And the greatest

What's the newest, newest, newest

Never mind the consequences

Of this outfit - it's the cutest

Never mind the micro-plastics

I got a steal - it's the cheapest

Blinded by consumption

"others will care" - that's the assumption

We'll buy on instinct - retail therapy

Addicted to cheap dopamine

After all, I'm just a teen 

But what about the dying earth

Or the horrors in the Global South 

What if we were mindful

Instead of loading our cart full

What if we give it a whirl

and truly change the world?
