The Porch

The porch is a welcome haven
from my storms--

a partial shelter given that it
protects me from

the rain
but not
the wind.

Days can be as full as you can
make them, and I

tend to attempt for maximum
fulfillment at every

moment:
make it 
filled out

like an epically long application
for employment, a

task I have become intimately
acquainted with in 

the last
full days
I've had.

But for now, I guess I'm left
with understanding

that the fuller your days are
the more important

moments 
on the 
porch

become.
