Monday Prayers, Sunday Worries

I sit here
Waiting
Poised on the edge of wonder and tantrum
Pondering
The idea of leaving here
And creating something new
Something completely without prior consideration
Like a ranch hand or an article writer

Gods, how I want to get away from here
To walk quiet among the stars
And the bars of light falling
Over my tired face and bombed-out mind

I want to heal the breaks and tears
Rent in my being from hollering fools
Who neither understand nor appreciate
The value of daily loveliness
The priceless joy of silence.

Can I be blamed
For not wanting
To suffer fools gladly?
Give me a few easy rounds
With the monotony of data entry
And never again
Will I complain of too much quiet.


Vision Wolf, tired tired tired
