I started the day
with a poem
which got interrupted
by something,
important,
that got
interrupted,
which then was
interrupted
by something
important
that got interrupted
by something
else,
important,
leaving me
late to
where I was
supposed
to be.
Several
interruptions
followed.
And then came
more
important
interruptions
stacked
one
on
top
of
the
other.
Facing west,
late (again)
to the next
important thing,
the sunset
stretched orange
across the
full sky,
interrupting
my hurry,
leaving me
breathing,
with my poems
tucked neatly
in my pocket
til there is time.
