skip days of writing
write while others are speaking
maybe the focus isn’t what i need,
but the divided attention,
to complete my goals
with creativity
short poem day
May 28, 2024
if only i ever found a time
when i thought my mind was organized
but as it stands
and as it be
the organization of my mind is cacophony

why isn’t the poetry giving me the same excited vibe
it has been for three plus years?
do i need time
away?
or will this feeling pass
anyway?

how was yesterday
twelve lifetimes ago
and age nine, for me, feels like last week

the rain falls
or just stalls
upon our little home
and we, cozy
inside, hide from the
wind and wet and chill and
catch our morning
here and now
May 13, 2024
maybe an extra little time
an extra single stanza
an extra couplet of rhyme
an extra moment in time
or something else will help me
be ready for the day upcoming…

talking the morning away
while thunderstorms roll by
and rain drops drip splatter upon our home

Studio Ghibli piano music
sings out of speakers
playful and delicate
and a butterfly flutters just outside the window
where our one speaker sits
calling the magic of life
towards it

i want to do
~things~
today
i want to get stuff
accomplished
and check
every single item
off of my to-do lists
and feel like i actually
did a whole day
today

running away from
all responsibilities
in order to take care of
my own health self
[i hate it i hate it i hate it]
