Signs Of Greater Age (29)

1-when making a significant purchase
preferring to be in a real queue
with real people whom you can see
and count, however little you relate
to them, rather than a virtual queue
on the end of a phone line,
with unknown numbers of callers 'ahead'
of you and canned Vivaldi for company.

2-Not noticing when the human world
increases the speed at which it shares
and grabs at people, the better to appeal
to youths hung up on tricking their way
past the moment for there always being
'more to do'. Your moments seem fuller
for being more calmly lived through.
