A Day
some might say it was a wasted day
No. 2 bus to Downtown
in and out of outfitter stores
six Auto-Donuts from the Public Market
more walking
just walking
Street Car to Capital Hill
Light Rail to the University
a Christmas Card
a book of poetry
a Manhattan
a strangely quiet Lyft ride
to the library
return the strangest book
I have read in a long time
try on new glasses
back where I started
not totally wasted
exercise is good
not as good as a cycling tour
but good
i found some inspiration
in the effort
that much a plus
a respite from the
nonsense that is our daily politics
it’s good to be home with you
