I walked the block today.
Just to not move on to the next thing.
For a brief respite from the list.
Five minutes, or less, of childish freedom.
Autumn leaves crunched underfoot.
Cold wind threatened my hat.
I stared at buildings.
I took deep breaths.
I smiled at strangers.
Then I was back at the car.
Back on the wheel.
