A Different Reality
i am easily distracted
drawn by colors and shapes
their relationships across the divide
of my attention
they shimmer and gleam
tints of car windows
chrome glinting
post-its carry the duty
of my to-do lists
amidst this portal into some other reality
untouched by the aspirate
of drawn-out duty
an oasis in the sand.
