here i am.

there are few things

that make me feel more alive
and amused
than a coffee cafe in the morning hours.


the people.
oh they are just so priceless.


hearing some rousing
political discussion about
how those “rich people” just don’t
want to do their part.


and a concerned exchange
how just
how likely it is that zombies
will take over the world
in the coming years.
and when {not if} they do,
what is it they are wanting?


the leaves are falling purposefully.
the wind defies traffic
sweeping the trees’ gifts 
the wrong way down the
one way.


with coffee in hand.
the fingers flying across the keys.
the 1960s grooving
the air.


and…
there is no where else for me
to be
except right here.


so i take my shoes off.
i think i’ll stay awhile.
here i am.


where do you find yourself today?
the happiest of fridays to you dear people.
