Core: Relishing the Ordinary

Continuing on
With caught-uncaught,
Drifting up and down
Throughout the day,

Thinking of being everything,
Observing the routine
And wondering
Why it’s necessary,

As it all seems the same
From a certain point of view;
Maybe it’s worthwhile,
Either way, it’s all I know right now:

Doing laundry,
Meal preparation,
Eating
And washing dishes,

It all appears more so,
More enjoyable,
More meaningful,
When looked at from here;

I find it interesting
That this mundane activity
Should make so much sense
To me, when it’s so simple;

Complexity is suspended,
Pricey diversions are unavailable
To me currently,
But I don’t care today,

Contentment with the ordinary,
What’s present is enough:
To move, perform essential tasks and breathe,
At the moment these are all I need,
Even though, no satisfaction is guaranteed.
