Today Is My Life

Today is my life

all seconds and sensations

like bunny ears held hidden 'bove my head

In attempt to do it "right"

got hooked on hallucinations

but I named them premonitions instead

Today is my life

against my battered judgement

not when I get the job or win the war

It's what I do, not what I might

looking up long enough to see it

In on the inside joke of what it's for
