marooned on the island
of errands
this morning
but after a breakfast stop
the warmth of the sun
and an intense lethargy
it all washes over me
slow and thick
so i retreat to the north
hopping off the tram
here and there
forcing myself to walk a bit
so I don’t fall asleep
in public
maybe it’s the remnants
of yesterday afternoon’s
sudden headache
but i hide at home
and drift in and out
of feeling ok.
