soon

winding down shouldn't feel like winding up
release
3000 checks to make
cross the list
double back
reread finish it up
to sleep through the sky and raise the curtains
another day another place another sun

Just a few more days before vacation.

other people's busy

all you do is annoy
your thousands of questions
bring frustrated sighs
and you still have more
and more
and more

what do they think
are you reading the silence
accurately?
have you forgotten their lives
their busy-ness

ask the questions anyway

I get in these moods where I just feel like the most annoying, unimportant person that steals important time from busy people. I had one of those moments this morning. I'm working on just asking and letting the others (person, people, groups, etc.) take care of their own needs, to wait until they let me know that they don't have time rather than assuming.
