On: The little voice that tells you what you should be doing, instead.

Okay, 

Tomorrow I’m going to change my life

I’m going to meditate 

I’m going to cook 

I already bought all of the ingredients. 

Wait okay- 

Now, really, tomorrow 

I’m going to change 

I’m going to call my mom 

and I’m going to pay that damn car note 

Look- maybe tomorrow 

I’m going to wash my hair 

& not have wine with dinner 

Tomorrow? 

No plans, what’s up? 

From Etcetera: a collection of almosts and afters—a book of poems about growth, grief, and the courage to come home to yourself.
