She sits in a
Cafe with her
Laptop open to a Page.
Plate empty with Crumbs
Coffee almost finished.
She ordered
a Cappuccino
not a Latte
wanting to watch her Weight
just in case
She planned for this Time
where she could wait for
Inspiration to strike. It hasn't Yet.
Ignoring her Needs
to finish that Paper
those Problems
take those Notes from the day she missed Class.
So this Window of Time
could be here
with the remainder of her Cappuccino growing cold
So she could be a Writer
and not a Student
a Worker
for this Window of Time
Yet now
it seems worthless
to schedule for Now
when the Inspiration still has
Yet
to Strike
