I’m busy he boasted opening his emails proudly.
I’m busy he shouted as his second line rang.

I’m busy she told her child, head immersed into her phone.
I’m busy she repeated, her mantra to get into the zone.
I’m busy she bragged, the promotion was in sight.

I’m free to spend time with my children but busy they are

I’m free to live, maybe next time

If only I had not been busy for life…
