Soaking information and moving in circles may ease the bloat
to ruminate on possibly finding a lake to tour around
instead of watching the neighbors’ flowers grow.
Escape and return; catch and release
or sleeping at home instead.
Give everything the lens of future possibility.
When the strain of building subsides to the boredom of resting
indulgence dissipates thoughts to the hips in a sluggish tutu
absorbing exhaustion and expelling nothing but reluctance.
What perseveres when choices fail decisions
and all efforts now side with time?
The slowness settles in with urges to thwart excellence.
Remember me differently tomorrow and I promise to change.
