in human living


the one free extension is almost done,
taxes are due in three more days,
I have no IRS approved excuse for delaying any longer;
I could do them now,
but there’s still three days

instead I write thes lines;
absent a true emergency
they’ll be filed on time,
they always are

I used to worry and call myself a procrastinator,
now I worry not and just call me me

I love this poem and the icing on cake is your tag: “the way it is.”
