three pears

i forgot 

all about 

this post 

waiting patiently

 for me

 to write words

 to accompany it 

often

 when its quiet here at the office

 in the late afternoons

 i will write my posts

 or

 at least 

choose a photo

 that

 i hope

 will prompt me

 to write

 yesterday 

was such a day

 quiet 

with no one around to interrupt the muse

 so what happened?

 i don't know

 i don't remember

 i do remember

 as

 i headed home

 that

 i hadn't written

 hadn't set the post to publish

 i would do it 

i resolved

when i got home

 when i did get home

 Toonman and i

 got involved 

in something

 then

 the news was on

 then the night before Daily Show

 then

 well 

bottom line

 i woke 

around 2ish

 thinking 

did i set that to publish at midnight without writing anything

 will my devoted readers

 lurkers

 think 

i went 

Wordless on Thursday

 or

 did i not do anything

 at all 

no

 i didnt get up to find out

 if that ever happens

 i will for sure know 

i have lost it 

speaking of lost 

yesterday

 i wore a pair of earrings

 i rarely wear

 a pair of hearts

 that dangle

 a gift from my friend Wendy

 i wore them

 to feel close to her

 its something i do

 i know 

i am weird

 anyway

 when i got to the subway 

last night

 i realized

 they were not dangling from my lobes 

i also realized

 that backtracking

 - once before this happen, i back tracked and found the lost earring - 

wasn't going to work

 i had no idea 

when 

they went missing

 i know

 exactly

 how

 it happened

 even tho i don't know

 when

 i didnt put those little stopper things on the back wire 

i was wearing my zip up to the chin coat

 with

 a scarf around my neck

 its likely

 the combo

 caught the back wire

 enabling them to escape

 i really needed a hug

 when i got home 

in fact 

that

 hug

 and

 the following conversation

 they're responsible

 for me forgetting to write 

had that not happened

 who knows 

what drivel i would have shared

three pears

 i have no idea

 if its a good wine or not

 i only know labels

 like signs 

are like a magnet

 they pull me in 

make me 

aim and shoot

 and 

of course 

share
