What are you doing, he asked.
I replied, Sitting in the dark,
Alone,
wishing I could get rid of
The blackheads on my forehead,
The tickling in my ears,
cease scratching my ankle hives
And eat less
While solving the ills of the world,
Before sitting in the dark,
Again.

I miss Sundays on CBS. I used to be a big fan. They must still be good, huh?
Love your shoulders. Hand holding cannot be beat.

I love the poem. I see a woman feeling sadness in the photo thirty years ago. Would a new photo show more joy?
