The Malady that is Our "Busy" Life / Vulnerable

Why does
Why does that drop of tear
Drop down this teary eye
In this largely mundane
Moment in time ?

Is it because
That animal there,
plodding through this busy life,
Is at wit's end
When there is
No time to spare ?
Or because
Anxiety
When attacks,
Deserving a special mention of nature,
Claims its pearly prize
With brutal tack ?
Or perhaps the question to begin with,
Would say my strong friends,
In today's modern world,
Is a boring one.
Whose correct scientific answer
Won't of course fail to amaze.

I wonder though
If that same scientific answer
Can heal our tearing brethren,
Tearing a little with every precious tear -
Precious tears all over the world -
Because of a despair
That, as opposed to cause,
has no sense or rhyme.
Not even a bit !
