Out

I sent Myself to seize the day,
meaning I ordered Myself to do all the things
I didn’t want to do.
And I didn’t want to do anything.
I told Myself to complete some tasks
while I lay in bed watching a comedy on TV.
Then I left Myself a note
stuck to the refrigerator door:
Please prepare dinner and finish everything else.
I’ll scrub the floors
tomorrow. Promise.
