Mea Culpa

inspection bloodbath
today's mantra on the floor-
I am not my job

cleaning frenzy
trying to finish the year
with some order



off for the holidays
figuring out the way home
to be with Mommy

one week till Christmas
still waiting to hear from the boss
if I can go home

rough chore day
condescending mechanic
and no sleep

Hunt for Newness

planning for next year
penciling in fun, chores,
and learning new things

winter funk explained -
realizing the lack of light
indeed wacks me out

winter of life
what is my legacy
amidst the chaos
