Transition














These days,
I’m feeling like a loose tooth —
I bite into my days
with a wobble

Some days I don’t know
what I’ll do to fill them.
Some are so packed with purpose
I have no time
to think of what I’ll do.
I feel fuller after the filled-up days

As for the emptier ones,
the stuff I might pull into them
can feel like dust, like rubble —
things I may have wanted
now having no connection
to the new life
I haven’t quite stepped into.
