distracted
Coloring a picture,
I want to read a book.
Reading,
My mind wanders about what to cook.
I put on the burner,
Then remember a song I used to sing.
I remember the water and put it on.
Find a hum that was forgotten.
The sun is setting, I think
I should have tended the garden.
The water starts to boil.
I should have collected vegetables.
In the moment, a river
Of every action I could take.
Breathing out is hard
When ever second breeds mistake.
