Lists

Dreaming words, and the words are waiting.

I awaken and try to open my notebook, but the pages are stuck.

I scramble fruitlessly every morning.

Those dreams, those dreams…

I forgot my dreams before I could get a pen in my hand.

So I can only look back at my list from yesterday.

Of all the things I was supposed to do.

But that list is dusty and outdated.

So I write my new list and write neatly.

I look through my old lists.

And close my notebook,

Until tomorrow morning.
