what is a passing day?

was today in the midst?

--a powerpoint on kant

an unedited essay

an overslept nap

a frenetic lunch

a full inbox

a scolding voice--

was today on the mend?

--a lost dream

a benched chat

a far away run

a spontaneous dance

a kind stranger

an adventure of pears--

was today in the sun?

(i stopped today.

i closed my eyes and

just

breathed.

i felt that warmth

on my eyelids,

and i think i fell in love with the sky.)
