patient with the world

sound asleep at ten.

your new routine has set in.
the phone doused.
the lights
dimmed.

these long days off have you
walking
the boards.

uneasy. pacing.
reading too many books,
writing too many
sad poems.

thoroughly bored
with television, the news.
the paper.

you've been patient with
the world.
as it has with you.

time to escape, become whole
again,
become new.
