these are moments when
if i could
i’d throw it all away
it’s good there is no match
or magickal eraser
in which to clean the slate
i’ve learned time & again
these are like tsunami buoys
informing, warning me
the emotional wave
i’ve been riding
is about to peak
& is not the time
to ditch, even when
the pitch is at the highest degree
trash can moments
if i can just stay still
and keep breathing
counting slowly to 10
i know it will peak
the denouement pending
until it is time to begin again
so grateful i really couldn’t have
thrown it all away
