6. Travel Day
after resurrection we celebrate
getting back to where we left off
restart routines we stopped
so we could rest in the notions of
rebirth connection peace
now we are called to carry on
the busyness of work days
fill in the blanks with numbers
and words, check boxes created
by authorities we never see
pull up greasy blinds in crumbling rooms
where potted plants sag into rotten roots
shake off calm to fall back into moving
forward with a sense of invented
purpose and “useful” anxiety
