a hundred random thoughts

my life is a discombobulation of endless thoughts
   like food is NOT my friend   exercise is my friend
fasting MAY be a good idea
        eating takes up way too much time
death is hanging over me like a dark cloud
I watch too much TV     it is my enemy
money is not my friend
            my life clock is ticking fast

no time to do everything I want
   procrastination is something I do
housework needs to be done (!)
      I need to focus because I am befuddled
must write stories and poems each day
cannot suppress the storyteller in me
friends often cannot be trusted
           family live far away

I like to draw but there is no time
   wish to read   the books are getting dusty
want to wander the library for hours
      meander the art gallery alone
go on nature hikes with my camera
work on my photography editing skills
have coffee in a really nice cafe
           to contemplate the puzzle of my life

dance class is my friend but it takes time
   meditation and praying is something to do
taking my pills, blood pressure, blood sugar
      tick, tock, tick    how much longer God (?)
I can honestly say I have never, ever been bored
but I have been confounded
what should I be doing today    what (?)
           I need a plan   tick, tock, tick, tock
