Today

Set them straight
Set them right,
When things
Get too much,
So that life can move on.
One thing.
The other.
The next.
Set them neatly,
These things on the table,
Or in your day,
Wherever they might be.
Work with what you have,
With what you can,
So that what to do
Is crystal clear.
Let the wind blow, if it has to,
Like it will.
Let it knock them down-
plants, books, papers
Or coffee.
Set them things straight
again, if you have to.
Again, every day.
Like you bathe, eat, sleep
Every day.
Arrange them, you must,
Just so,
It’s a direct, honest, organized day.
Today. That is all you need to set straight.
