By leaving the queue

 

To buy a movie ticket from a counter

Is not the same as the need to be defined by some external standard

 

Both create queues

 

One looks like a queue

Other feels like a progression

 

One makes you efficient

Other makes you complete

 

One frees you at the end

Other conforms you if it ends

 

One is the no-brainer

Other is thought-through

 

Funny how the inconsequential one allows for reflection as one waits

While the significant other frowns any as one hurries

 

There will be many queues inviting your participation

No need to stand in all of them

Discern your queues.
