there's the going and there's the gettingthere
running and arriving
balance these and you'll have more answers than most of alongtheway
passers-by lean toward trying
frying sunshine each new dayup
coffee to power through taste and brightness
everything is breakfast
everything is ingredients
the most important part of the day: being in the day
this is the breakfast
this is the fallingasleep
this is the way the drop lands on my arm before anyone else knows rain
knowing how the cobcorn feels in my mouth
spilling dirt all over the floor that should have been outside
waiting for nothing but the present
ache of muscles at rest
tomorrow is another yesterday/ no past but through/ no then but now

side note
While this blog's original purpose was to keep myself honest in my practice of doing daily justwrites-- 10-minute freewrites from some unusual starting points-- it has meandered to occasionally include other sorts of writing, to address other goals, and to even include other authors. Now, its main function is as a sort of verbal/ thought outcropping in public view. These are not polished pieces, and most are completely rough drafts. As some pieces may be developed through revision, your comments are most appreciated.
