September #22

sometimes
i forget what i've done
or
how much i have left to do.
i hate it
i get behind
lost
lose track of things
and fall so far behind.
i feel like i need
to always always do things
to always always do so well
and that i can never stop
to breathe.

July #13

I have been hiding all weekend from a mountainous pile of assignments and finals,
one that looms before me as I cower in dread. And today
today this day of rest that is today,
it is time to roll up my sleeves, shake my head, and get down
to work.
Honest work, successful work, work that makes me feel smart,
prepared, honest work that might get me a job someday.
Time to face the music
so that I can interrelate everything
and get a life.
