to jot down this thought
but didn’t get to it until later
in the day
things kept me going for
hours like getting the dog smell
out of the
carpet
not quite
as productive as watching
bread
rise
pulled weeds from
the mulch beds
just because I
noticed
them
I cooked lunch while
I folded towels
and listened
to
SportsCenter
while I spent a moment
inside my head at a stone bridge
at sunset,
watching the cat-tails
flicker in the breeze
and then I decided to write that down.
