this morning quiet
i'll enjoy it while i can
it's my favorite time
. . . [9/17/23]
. . .
' don't know what's hap'ning
and i feel a little scared
' don't know what to do
. . . [9/17/23]
. . .
feel like i'm behind
made a lot of wrong choices
got to move forward
. . . [9/17/23]
. . .
time and day go on
no matter what we're thinking
it just keeps going
. . . [9/17/23]
. . .
i know there's better
' need to not take it easy
different than before
. . . [9/17/23]
. . .
yesterday music
today we go back to work
we'll find more music
. . . [9/18/23]
. . .
was thinking of mom
how she feels with all of this
does she feel outside
. . . [9/18/23]
. . .
apart for many
but around each other all
must be a bit strange
. . . [9/18/23]
. . .
all time, all places
probably all felt the same
wond'rin' why we're here
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
a little bit cool
but warm enough to be warm
mid september days
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
be who you want to
have an idea and try it
you're default's not great
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
i sometimes say "no"
even just subtley "no"
and i'm worse for it
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
flat and slow and sad
that is this tuesday, for me
how it is for you?
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
i like this breeze though
just the quiet of right now
i want this always
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
and that's my problem
this peace can't be all the time
you can't hide in it
[i]
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
don't let yourself sink
don't let yourself sink so far
don't sink all the way
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
i want a nice snack
just a little something
so maybe some breaths
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
always been flat-ish
working on this the whole time
some days more tiring
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
where does it come from
is it all just our diets
eat this, be happy
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
you should get up, write
i just heard me say to me
best i do that then
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
i walked on wet ground
it rained last night but not now
it doesn't rain much
. . . [9/19/23]
. . .
tried to walk it out
a bit of weight brought by night
reminded of day
. . . [9/20/23]
. . .
things are going fine
today's wake up was better
no tears for today
. . . [9/21/23]
. . .
a cup of good tea
my sweetie right over there
pretty good, i say
. . . [9/21/23]
. . .
so i'll take it in
spend some time with good feelings
let this be the truth
. . . [9/21/23]
. . .
off to find out
if it will be worse than bad
try'n' to just receive
. . . [9/22/23]
. . .
we all end somehow
but it's strange to see so much
i can't really prepare
. . . [9/22/23]
. . .
so more slow breathing
so more love into the air
so more hopes of peace
. . . [9/22/23]
. . .
before seven hush
no machines, not even dogs
subtly, the birds
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
i woke without bells
asleep early enough to
plenty of day now
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
the birds a bit more
but still quiet all around
i will sit in it
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
coughs from the distance
signs of other life begin
but very slowly
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
i let go of one
i should say i'm trying to
it will be helpful
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
i was holding on
i thought it was a good thing
i think maybe not
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
meeting's are hap'ning
we are fighting for fair pay
fighting for good life
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
showing we can stand
no matter how hard you hit
we know what is right
. . . [9/23/23]
. . .
. . .
