Just Peachy
Sitting in the bath eating a peach,
Out of reach shampoo and things.
I use my fingers.
Conditioner smushed * into hair,
I wait for gunk to work.
Head dunked an inch below the water
And still chewing, crunch intensified a thousand fold.
Damp pad and all, I hold the pad in front of me and write.
That’s what I call exciting!
I get dafter by the day –
Soldier-bolder,
Hanging-from-the-rafters thing
I fling all trivia aside.
Riding time on high.
I’m ridin’ high** on time;
Strategies unplanned.
*smush; my own word, meaning a mixture of smash/knead/crush/massage/rub/knead
