Your time's worth, valued

dreamlessly lost completely

This being where we become persons

You can always ease his toil,
but you need not think him unhappy.

"One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods
and raises rocks.
He too concludes that all is well.
This universe henceforth
without a master seems
to him neither sterile nor futile.
Each atom
of that stone,
each mineral flake
of that night filled mountain,
in itself forms a world.
The struggle itself
toward the heights is enough
to fill a man's heart.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy."

of thought first formed
from twisted cotton,
gently tugged, tightly held
pulled from a hand made chenille bedspread,

I think I was three, using the life anchors
we all attached to during alone times,
less rare in the MAGA olden days,
latch key kids had plenty of time to read…
napping me, in a house I turned upside down,
in my mind, and imagined the fun of war games
with the ceiling for the floor,
transoms, windows above hallway doors,

What time is worth while imagining a new reader, never read
the initial point made to stretch to here, where if it is fun to write,
it might be fun to read, and fun does good things to reading earthians.
