Quiet Monday
It has been a quiet day. I got up at a quarter to ten which is very late for me. I woke up much earlier and then went back to sleep. When I finally got up I was a little disoriented. I have a friend who has a daughter who has a disability. In my opinion this person has made her daughter disabled by doing everything for her. I could be wrong. This troubles me. I feel I can’t say anything to my friend about this because she won’t listen. I don’t have any children so supposedly I wouldn’t understand about being a mother. So I don’t know what to do or how to feel. Oh well, this will pass.
My voice
an echo
continuing
over and over
in empty space.
No one hears
the gentle rumble
as my words
drift through
infinity.
