I’ll take a break from posting poetry.
Although undoubtedly I’ll see and make
a note that may have footing metrically,
I’ll take a break.

I’ll lock my door to open to a wake
behind a boat amid new scenery,
recording with my hands and eyes opaque

or focused realizations fresh for me,
but I won’t post them yet, for resting’s sake.
I’ll turn away from habit’s tyranny.
I’ll take a break.

(I expect to be back in about two weeks.)
