The Todo List

Some days
I struggle for even a lick of inspiration.
Other days
I have forgotten such a struggle even exists.
Some days
I recount the bucket list tapping against my life.
Other days
I let the impulses in my head rewrite that list.

But through each revision, each draft,
each edit and checkpoint the list slides through,
its contents sliding like cars in a flood,
the wreckage will never be enough for me.
