national poetry month - catching up

slept late
too late
later than I'd planned

things to do
too late
I could sleep for hours
later than I'd plannned

slept late






the mess under my bed
is mine
in ways real
and metaphorical
it parallels other messes
mind, body and soul
I'll never clean it up





if something terrible happened
maybe I'd have some excuse
for my beahvior
or lack thereof
as it is
i got nothin
nothin but two pillows
and clean sheets
and an overwhelming lack
of motivation
