So much happens and I don't write it down
and then it disappears

And then nothing happens and I have this urge to write it down
but it bores me silly

So I'm reading
and sometimes writing
but nothing important
and not the stuff about how I'm scared silly of being exhausted
or how my loved ones can't stay well
and how I'm terrified they will die

or how I feel guilty for feeling
so much day-to-day

joy.

Can I just give a hug? I have no answers, but I do have hugs.

Joy is good for you. Guilt bad. I hereby write you a prescription for daily joy, which you are to take guilt-free.
