Status Quo

Planning and dreaming
And then
The status quo rained
Again
Thousands of mornings have come and gone
I’ve been up for hours and it’s not even dawn
Reading and writing catching up on email
The same as most mornings in every detail
The wood stove is glowing my coffee is hot
I plan all these books and never do squat
But today will be different
It will be really magnificent
I will write and write way into the night
It will flow like a river that goes out of sight
Planning and dreaming
And then
The status quo rained
Again
