Weekend plans

The dried chai stains on the stove I plan on scrubbing off
Slight cobwebs on my kitchen ceiling
A balcony I want to clear the clutter from
One cane chair, borrowed books and sunlight I want to make room for
The hundreds of movies I plan to watch and music
Music stored in my messages
From friends and not so friends anymore
I need a day to get to them too
I look at my list of things to do
Clothes that need folding
Shoes that need washing
Painting the nails and coloring the hair
Crimson
Light it all up in a flare
Wake up
Eat healthy
Sleep every day
I list the lies to achieve someday
That one old friend I’ve been meaning to catch up with
It has been a few years now
Actually, make that ten
I am good with excuses now
I was good at friends back then
Forms to fill and letters to post
Packages I promised my mother I’ll send
Things I glance at once a day
Chores I remind of myself everyday
Places to go
Well at least visit the store
Suitcases
To be moved from the bedroom floor
Asking you to please walk out the door
Pack up your memories from all my stuff
There’s so many of them
Like the reasons I make up on your behalf
Right before I tell myself – not today, let’s wait some more.
