Should Be

Somewhere to be
Five Minutes
Ten
I should be
Checking items off grocery lists
Running
Sifting through papers

I'm forgetting something-
What was it I needed to do?
Something-
Somewhere-

Wipe the counters,
Organize the drawers,
Scrub the sink,
Unload the dishes.

Papers, always papers.

I should be
Should-
Be-

Here.  Now.

In the moments I'm missing.
