Notes About The Poem

Getting up and sitting down is about  indecisiveness  in life.

Restless Renovation of Life

I'm getting up and sitting down.
And I'm getting up again.
I'm turning CHANGE around.
Who has the authority to say
Yes or no.  

Maybe gave me TOMORROW.
WHO sign their name on that line?
I'm changing pace. 
I'm packing up the worries.

I'm racking in the cash.
Life has given me a  better bed of
Blue roses.
Renovating fiercely, plucking up
The weeds.
Fixing up prescribed old remedies.  KNOCKING 
down  walls.  Putting down new  SOIL.   
REPLACING  the old fencing in the new.

Chasing scary  yesterday's.
With a handful of forget-me-nots
Tucked under one arm.
And  I'M FINE.
YEAH. I'M FINE.
