I can slump – here – on my
sofa & fall asleep – & never
wake – if I wish – I can do it
[that & anything] – living is
easy without constraints –
no complaints from a past
way of being – no othering
to call for compromises as
my eyes tire at moving [as
a demand to function & to
stand is not said] – I won’t
talk to myself – not yet – as
Paddleton plays on my TV
[two yakking men my age]
