"THE NEWBIE'S ANXIETY" in "RESTLESS: POETICALLY-SPEAKING"

See me for the first time: What do you have in mind? Hear my voice as I speak: Is it noise that could make you tick? Listen to me: Perhaps I am more than you see.

Watch what I do: Is it good enough for you? Perhaps I am still new, but I’ll try doing my best like you want me to. I make mistakes. There are things I might accidentally break.

Sounds scary? Wait, there’s more to be. If you still have enough faith in me, hopefully soon you’ll see. I may never be your most reliable superhero. There are times when I tend to be humanly slow.

Well, guess what? I am still working as fast as I can go. After that, I will let you decide.
