#272 Too Late, December


weight of remote control in my hand
i watch the news
missing kids, murder, somalia
OFF

focus on the living room
close my eyes and my self to World's problems



i tidy the glass coffee table
straighten furniture
water the tree's red and green bowl
and stand back

i squint at the mediocre tree
glow and twinkle, glow and twinkle
sometimes, things look better
with eyes half shut
