(Feeling good)
Feeling good
Is good
Being good
Is better
Sometimes I can’t squeeze nuance
Onto a poem
Sometimes I find half eaten chocolates
in my bag of pretzels.
A gift from myself
To myself
I am being good
To myself
But I hide the chocolates
In the dresser
Behind the towels
So I don’t have to share
Which is not good
And does not feel good
I am clawing around in the dark
Eating dark chocolate peanut butter cups
In the hallway
Is good
Being good
Is better
Sometimes I can’t squeeze nuance
Onto a poem
Sometimes I find half eaten chocolates
in my bag of pretzels.
A gift from myself
To myself
I am being good
To myself
But I hide the chocolates
In the dresser
Behind the towels
So I don’t have to share
Which is not good
And does not feel good
I am clawing around in the dark
Eating dark chocolate peanut butter cups
In the hallway
I think it's a good sign we've both had peanut butter cup poems in 2019
