It’s hard to focus.
to find my locust.
Turn off auto pilot
find a new drive
that’s mine.
Try new things.
Test new limits.
Relive my teenage freedom,
fall back into bad habits.

and out.

I’ve learned how.

I know my demons well.
Leave the door open,
so they can come and go
as they please.

Thank them when they come,
send them a plate home
when they leave.
