just a quick
little poem
today
before i run
and do things
all day
[well, thing,
one main thing
throughout the day
a load-in, tech, and opening
all in one day
today will be
a very long day
hence the short-ish poem
to start the
day]

halloween type music
to startle start my day
and cozy up into
spooky season
i love it
i love it
i love it
reading spooky books
for spooky season
that i got in the spookiest way of all
[at least from a capitalist’s perspective]
completely
free
[MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!]
it’s ok
to take a little break
every once in a while
it might even be
necessary
[right? i ask myself
my subconscious and my
inner capitalist and my
perfectionistic brain
right?
right???]
merge me with another version of me
that knows me and can help me include me in my own life
because, damn, sometimes i feel i’m on the outside looking in
reading about it later from its novel format
only getting highlights and lowlights
and not sticking with myself through thick and thin and median
but if i know me i know the me that’ll keep going
and i think i am them
i think
i am
me
just kinda writing
kinda vibing
this morning
hoping i can nap in such a way
that actually rejuvenates me
instead of making me more
sleepy
and hoping my body holds and heals and continues
the way i need it to
for this week/month/semester/year/life
i love when the words just flow just drip just pour
from my fingertips without squeezing
without pushing
without forcing
like they were always meant to be there
in that order
with that meaning
[can i have more
of that
please?]
such grand plans
such grand plans
we can do more
we can do more
but sometimes we need to do
what we have already done
and leave it at that
and leave it at that
do i get more out of my morning poetry
when it is less likely to be a poem
i’m willing to share with any sort of audience
[even that of the opinionless void]?
almost
certainly
yes
of course it’s when avoiding one thing
that i’m finally in the mood to do
another long avoided task
is that human nature?
is that the trauma?
is that maybehd?
could it be
all three?
