That poem needs work… but
What’s happening on Twitter…
Mail? This early? Never heard of ‘em.
Probably spam…but
Ohhh… a new type of pruning saw…
Might be good for the shaping our Maple needs..
Nah…I need to focus on the poem.
‘Got a responsibility to get that out.
The world needs that perspective.
Open…Recent…BINGO! There it is.
OH! Better get some Pandora going
What’ll it be? Bossa Nova, Strauss…
Strauss. Ahh hat’s better…but
What’s happening on AP?…
Problems needing solutions…
Let’s see…Foreign Relations, Russia Policy…
Russia Policy! The solution is so damned simple.
Just a quick Tweet…
I dunno…maybe the pruning saw would be good.
Where was that site…
Down
Where’s the damned coffee scoop…
If ANYONE would put things back
In the same place twice…
The weather looks sucky today
‘Should stay in and watch TV…except
It has nothing but trivial crap going on.
Maybe read that poetry anthology…except
It’ll just make me feel like such a hack,
What the hell is my perspective gonna add
To the world of Poesy?
It’s all preaching to the choir anyway.
Who the hell reads poetry nowadays?…except
Effete introverts…like me, I guess.
The LANDLINE? THIS EARLY? Screw it…
If it’s not a robocall they’ll leave a message…
THERE’s the friggin’ scoop!…
Oh my God. In the fine silver yet!
The weather looks worse…
Maybe a nap…
Coffee’s a bad idea…
Yeah, a nap.
