linear inspiration

Today is my first day back on schedule
after two full days of conferencing downtown
except I'm no where near an actual schedule
my body is imitating the plotted movements
but my mind is somewhere else altogether

I'd like to listen to the rain
tapping on my bedroom window while
my eyes scour lines of written words
to turn the first pages of a heavy book
each holding the promise of many more to follow
a whole world unfolding

stirring within me the inspiration and confidence to do something
remarkable like
talk to a stranger for hours
or sing out loud on a crowded elevator

photo found on English Muse.
