What’s Around You?
stop and look around every so often
The last ten years-
waiting for Saturday, promotion, Erie.
Everything a waiting game.
No focus on the small aspects.
Living for a perpetual possibility.
The rabit hole constant-
three episodes of RAW,
ten minutes (two hours) on social
what am I going to wear next season
(next season 2 months away…)
living to exist, to be numb, away from reality.
The only time catching my attention:
walking my dog a mile per day
Tucker- forcing attention to houses
on the street and the pitter patter of paws
Ten years- swallowed up- too few memories of life in reality-
the scent mom wore
the beauty of a sunrise or sunset
the way a morning routine empowers.
I only have brief memores and photos
& a wish that I could go back- not take
anything for granted- to enjoy daily life
for all the aspects. To be able to remember.
