Fingers need to move
nervous energy
prompts them to keep busy
Just as my thoughts
my mind
will not be silent
My fingers will not be still
so I play Solitaire
or now type
I imagine myself crocheting
as I did long ago
as a young girl
Used to crochet
needlepoint
embroider
and sew
Used to paint, too
Who knows
Maybe I will do so again
Do any or all of the above
Then again
Maybe not
I don’t put too much stock
in what I do
or don’t do
Ambivalent about goals
No longer as goal oriented
as I was long ago
Well, I do have some goals
I suppose
but they are flexible
