It might defeat the purpose, but I feel this has room to go. I'd do it by making each stanza adhere to the above condition, and yet, have them all add up to one work.
"A forest of tasks" is a great metaphor. A sea of trees to drown out sight and sound of all else.
So that's where you've gone. I will admit to being a bit worried.
As for myself, yes, very much so. I throw myself into any thing I do, which means everything else tends to get left behind. I can only focus fully on one thing at a time, and I rarely split my focus.
Already working on it, not for this poem, but another.
Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, I have just been a little too busy to get to everything I want to be able to. Hyper-focus is both a blessing and a curse.
