awaiting an answer
and trying to force it
out
short poem day

i feel
as though
i haven’t had a regular morning
in days [true]
weeks [kinda accurate]
months [i guess one could argue this]
years [i think this is where we lose our debate]
[though, i suppose, everything post-2020 hasn’t been
regular life/mornings/any time of day
at all]

do it
do it scared
but still
do it
[the mantra in the back of my mind
all the damn
time]

if i write of the sunlight
the sounds outside
the playlist and the air outright
is that disingenuous to myself?

playing with form
[but maybe not
function] in order
to make my poetry
function as more
than just words
on a [digital] page

who is a little little pup
who’s gonna eat her breakfast up
to become a big strong dog
it’s Computer; gonna eat it all!

sleepwalking
and daydreaming
and just kind of floating my way
through the haze around me
it’s the only way
i can see
to protect myself and everything close to me

vibing
with music
but not with
writing
[the plight of the creative
with too many outlets]
September 4, 2025
pondering
teaching
directing
improvising
trying new things
[and not too new new things]
and still
maybe
sewing
and writing
and reading
and playing
and flying
and learning
and living

writing for aeons and aeons
just to find a concept i’d
never attempted
to understand
