Back and forth
The world will never be done
Eggshells are strewn across the floor.
Nowhere to look.
Watch your step/
Footsteps loud as thunder.
Panic streaks electric through.
One eye open
does not always mean you stay safe.
I think it was a good one.
Yet bad things did happen.
I choose to ignore certain problems.
So tomorrow I will have to face them.
Unless I once again balk.
It slows to a crawl
When you are bored.
It goes so fast
When the video game
Refuses to let you go.
Momentary distraction.
Uncertain thoughts.
Found the inevitable.
Justice is forgotten.
Banned for a week.
Tomorrow night
due for another round.
One crisis
after another.
What do i do
when there are no crisis’s
to solve
or manage?
Can I truly relax
while I wait for the next one?
Or am I making some
because that is what I am used to?
Without context
it would mean goodbye for many.
Today, it means
I a simply tired.
Too exhausted to care.
All I want to do is crawl under the blankets
and read or scroll.
In that way, it has won.
Though, I suppose I could call it self care?
When financial troubles
escalate.
Things need to be done now.
Yet, the processes take time.
My energy is low
and dealing with this
will mean I will be a zombie
for the rest of the day.
Sun shines
Through the rain.
Birds chirp
And flock to the feeder.
My brain
Sluggishly comprehends this.
Sleep is what I desire.
My cat demands otherwise.
Stress keeps coming at me quick.
I need to think and make decisions.
Until a soft furry head butts my arm
reminding me to slow down and pet her.
