Today
For the writers who forgot to not overthink
Let’s think of the trials that occur when I don’t write.
When simply living is in the moment, and I’m not looking any deeper.
The presents particular posture gives me something to imitate.
Like maybe if I try harder this simplicity I can emulate.
Let there be no word association,
No hiding moments in metaphors,
Thinking those who decipher just deserve to know more.
To my right a couple sits laughing, staring in eachothers faces.
In front of me a calm river flowing beneath a city not too busy.
Bikers and joggers,
Bikers and walkers,
I sit and breathe.
Today is Monday.
There’s a strong summers heat.
No sun,
Light breeze,
And I have nothing else to say.
