listening to songs, over and over
to be dancing
to be distracted
to be learning
how to move the world with lyrics and melodies
going for a walk all around town
to be a sight-seer
to be active
to be learning
how to be strong when i’m alone
sorting photos on my living room floor
to be orderly
to be minimal
to be learning
how to let go and how to remember
visiting my sister and her sons
to be out of the house
to be with somebody else
to be learning
how to mother and how to love
cooking supper for my husband
to be well-fed
to be a wife
to be learning
how we can be a better me and a better him
everything is learning
