A Graduate Student Avoiding his Ph.D., Being Productive,
or Being Creative and Useful in Any Real Way...

Saturday, November 13

I hear it is raining up I-35
I love rain drops
filtering from the sky onto my rooftop
It is not raining here

I like the word schoolishness and naps and stretching my back in the morning, unexpectedly feeling strong
I can't think today, I need a shower and then a nap
Somewhere soft

There are ideas in my head of how to allow myself to experience again, but then my quiet mind shivers with a lack of unrest, a feeling that someone needs me, that I need me, that someone sees the subtle

A deep well of emotion I can't yet grasp
Because of too much foolishness
it would have been wonderful to feel so bad

It Ends with a Fall:
I know it’s coming down,
and see it shattering me
- it doesn’t matter to me,
and I’m not sadder for
seeing it come.
