note to daily journal. when work takes over, the effort to do anything else is almost impossible….unable to write… i wait.

there’s hardly a moment free
caught in the trap of wanting
for nothing
wake up working
sunset comes too soon
amusement absent
sleep the deep
transported pursuit
building sand castles
sunbathing relax
transfixed
words of wonder
escape the pen
riding a bull who
bucks and stomps
snorting simple rhymes
8 seconds embrace
letters flying
skyward downward
slippery sliding
imagination
effortlessly eccentric
letters lined up
open congestion
no long empty spaces
hearty distractions
i think i just wrote
something
