serendipity

the best part was
pulling down the
shades
stuffing the doorbell
with rags
putting the phone
in the
refrigerator
and going to bed
for 3 or 4
days.

and the next best
part
was
nobody ever
missed
me.

Sometimes the weight of world seems to be on my shoulders. My knees may shake but never shatter. If I don’t hold myself up, no one else will.
