morning free write
the practice is non-judgment immediate thoughts
running out the door flog rain clog gutter down the street
your door is open too
rain gushing out from the ghost
that turns on the bathroom sink
no judgment
all edit
retrace the steps
it takes you back to the night before
as you could have brushed your teeth
but fell asleep
maskless
and grabbed your mask
in the middle of the night
to let your mind take rest
from your eyes
these vivid eyes
these seeing eyes
that see too brightly
and dim their sight
to make sense or direction
so that in the darkness something
is in focus
(and don't even get me started on the mouth of that thing!)
to be continued..
