Enduring
Whether I want to or not
I want to
I don't want to
I'm sad
I'm grateful
I'm out of Adderall
I have errands to run
Infrastructure to keep up
A body to care for
Midterm exams to grade
Professional letters to write
Social media friends who value my shots of affirmation
Desperate people who need my help
Online blogs I feel the need to censor
A bicycle that needs to be ridden
A vinyl LP project I need to follow to completion
Clouds to gawk at and photograph with my smartphone
Progressive politicians who need my money
if we're going to slam the brakes on Trump
and the cynical guardians of the wealthy.
A daughter who's getting married in Mexico
to an amazingly fine man.
Obviously
I will endure some more
God willing
