AND THEN THERE IS TODAY
I don't usually write
Saturday poems
not for religious reasons
not because
this is a different day
not even because
Saturday's on the weekend and I
am doing what I don't do
on Wednesday or Thursday
what I do
is exactly the same
shower fake latte
then there is today
one of those Days when
you know that you may
never see a day
as beautiful
as this one at least
not for a while and you
don't paint or photograph
so what you have
to remember this green
how the sky looks
what you have
are just these words.
These words.
