My way

“I’m  always fighting
for the next minute.”
C. Bukowski

Planning to read,
write my reflection,
then I’m pondering:
is this what I want
to do? truly?
instead
maybe
I could sit
in 9-5 cubicle
with tables of numbers
and graphics,
chew on the algorithms
of ‘if-then’
and tired
come home,
grasp
in trance 
the  TV screen…
      
dzzzzzzz….

The mood’s changing
momentarily 
I begin to  appreciate
the free will,
the schedule
that thrill
when I hear
my voice
saying
“I’m always fighting
for the next
minute.”
