A Day in the Life



Alarm!
Open eyes
look at the time
plenty of time
Close eyes

Open eyes, roll out
stretch back,
stretch down
stretch out

Coffee, Oatmeal, Vitamins
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
Question pen for ideas -
none

Shower time
Lather, rinse, no repeat
Idea!
Wash face
Turn off water
Dry off,
Dress up

More ideas
Scratch them down
Scratch them out –
Think

They flow from the pen
a fountain of openings
letting the world see
a glimpse of the over
clichéd soul

Forego shaving
Forego hiding
Everything’s out


Like a psalmist and his praises
my beliefs seek the pages
for the ages to come
in hopes that some of them
will seek a change too

What do you do with a BA in English?
You dream
Dream for a better tomorrow.
