I'm finished with expectation
the weary slog of cooking
of buying and paying
done with pretense
coercion smiles
I'm tired just the getting up
or lying down has become
too much
the blanket
like a shroud pressed on my shoulders
I don't mind
the weight of yesterday
cold a frozen slush of memory
regret crushing boredom
I wait for the perhaps in the morning
How still a picture you have painted. I can do little but sit with you and sigh.
