Everything's Equal, Unequal Equality

by Anastasia Selby

I've been having days of nothing.

Am I sad or just unproductive?

I seem happy except I don't do anything,
I hesitate to leave the house and spend entire days
wasting my time,
watching the days go by,
regretting already what has not happened yet.

One day is good, and the next day
is a backward landslide.

There is so much beauty in this world.
I have seenand appreciated it,

but the city is sucking myself out of myself.

I can't wait to leave here
and smell the dirt of the farm,
get my hands grimy.

Have a reason to wake up and smile.

Author's Note: I'm moving soon and am pretty unmotivated to do anything, because it feels like I'm justwaiting o leave. Wierd place I'm in.

Excellent capture of the human condition whether urban or rural. Thanks also for your comment on my latest Ana. :o)
