trust

note to self
trust in God and tie your camel—old Sufi saying

faith and trust are not
enough—you have to meet
your end of the contract—
the earthly end
tend the farm
pay bills
love one another
remember to be kind
you have no idea
what’s going on
in that rude driver’s day

I’m writing a poem a day. These are drafts—they may never turn into anything more or they might flower.
