There are days when I wonder if I have done anything at all, yet I’ve been busy, the hours have flown by, but what can I see that I’ve accomplished? A poem or two, some critiquing, emails …
WITH NOTHING TO HOLD ONTO
what good is a day
folded in half
with two bites taken?
how do I open
it up
to get inside?
it closes
without seconds
or minutes
I can’t open the hours
from the inside
shake out feathers
put clean sheets
over the gaps
and have dinner
within them
perhaps I can
laugh myself
back into yesterday
then tear off
the edges and make
an empty tomorrow
