POETRY: SLOW (re)START

Long breaks make weary

Old habits fade, new ones form

Reassert my will

*

Lazy Summer day

Sit outside, lie in the grass

Must I work today?

*

Imagination

Whole worlds are inside me

Yet gathering dust

*     *     *

     My break from writing is coming to an end, but I'm having a hard time breaking out of the inertia. Still, I'm getting there.
