sleep is good

the skincare squad is threatening to quit
they have been working 
miracles
BUT 
the part of me that picks
is just using that as an excuse 
to pick more

I was walking across the parking lot 
from my car to the vet
NO
I was walking 
FROM 
the vet --- picking up a prescription 
& I CAUGHT something 
out of the corner of 
my EYE
I
looked
UP
& there was an enormous 
LIKE 
the WHOLE 
PUFF
of the dandelion 
going 
UP

I don't believe 
ANY PART
of a dandelion 
has wafted past me
in ANY CAPACITY 

since I was in the GRASS
BLOWING on them
MYSELF 

EVEN THEN 

not the whole thing 

that's 
gotta 
be a 
SIGN
