I WANTED
to text in sick
&
I went through a WHOLE thing
therapy is something
you are CHOOSING to do
BUT
in the end
I decided that
TODAY
I was pushing through
I was doing the thing
I had chosen to do
as a showing
UP
his mother is
BETTER
AND
he was in
NEW ORLEANS
I don't KNOW
I don't think I
EVER
feel connected to my therapist, exactly
BUT
I FELT
DIFFERENT
slightly
OFF
it was
COLD though
&
I'm NOT good at the
LAYERING
yet
I'm walking and I'm thinking
I'm COLDer than I WANT
to be
& I'm thinking
REMEMBER
to take your jacket off
or your body will acclimate
& you'll be
FREEZING for the walk home
BUT
it was
BOILING HOT in the building
EVERYBODY was talking about it
my therapist's office
is NEXT to an OFFICE
he moved in, from down the hall
during the pandemic
& he's friends with them
SO they
never put up
the WALL
the waiting room is open to their offices
it's KINDA weird
BUT
I hardly
EVER
SEE or HEAR
ANYTHING
TODAY
I HEARD
ABOUT the HEAT
