The sensation of not rightness.
Should be but not.
What else could it be?
Uncertainity should not be in this equation.
Yet, there is an underlying sense of doubt.
Fear stands in my way.
Odd Outfit
Striped socks.
Yoga capris.
Nice crisp white shirt.
Long white Cardigan.
Comfortable grey shoes.
Workout or business meeting?
Couldn’t decide?
Blame the youngest for your lack of sleep
and the incongruent dress up.
Wet Cat
Our buddy went outside
In the April snow.
It is funny to see him
walk prancing around
before finding a softer patch of ground
to do his business on.
He cleans off his paws
when he comes in.
Then demands love and attention
but he is still wet from
freshly falling snow
making us laugh when we pet him.
I am Undone
Done finding the littlest mistakes.
Done with the hate and the greed.
Done with the blatant advertising that sells false happiness.
Done looking for my self.
Done being an adult in a childish world.
Done being a child who cannot understand where the world went wrong.
Done with no one knowing who I am.
I am who I am
and I am done
with constantly being undone.
The Dangers of a Fun Weekend
The routine has been upset.
You sleep in past your normal wake up time.
Exhaustion is overtaking the excitement.
The up coming week looms over your thoughts.
Anxiety takes hold
As you try to get a handle on your schedule.
Food and rest are now required
And instead
It is off to work you go.
60 day, Pre-paid
It seems like a long time
but goes by so fast.
You get caught up doing things
before you realize the days are slipping away.
How long does this last?
How much time is left?
What if it was 60 years
before the Earth runs out?
Imma Long Time Gone
It’s only been a day.
I feel so lost.
Things need to get done.
No direction for the wicked.
We should just let it go.
No one has any rights any more.
The world is dying
and I don’t want to play along.
Stubbornness runs in the Family
A strong-willed trait
that leads to arguments
and generally unhappiness.
Though sometimes
it means
you can be certain
the job
or task
will get done
because they won’t give up
until it is finished.
Gut Instinct
This expert tells me I need to wear makeup
in order to be attractive to others.
This expert tells me my wardrobe is out of fashion.
This expert tells me I need to lose weight
in order to be happier.
This expert tells me I need to cover up the grey in my hair.
This expert and this expert and this expert….
The only expert I truly need to listen to is the one that listens to my friends.
For when they tell me I am beautiful just as I am
it makes that voice inside me that says I am enough,
content.
Well, I also listen to my doctor because her advice is based on sound scientific education.
Groovy Zombie Chickens
When an unrelated incident
causes you to rethink your world views.
To be visited at night by psychedelic poultry
who want to convert you to their new found religion.
Only to discover
you are not
Dreaming.
