i do not tune into something that wasn’t there before i looked
present time
present city
present mind state
present bank account
present gender
present family
present body
present sickness
present taxes
present age
present loan balance
present government
present injuries
present relationships
present electronics
present confusion
present stores that are closed
present weather
present tea temperature
i tune into the realization that the only things i have to work with
the conditions that are here
everything i do comes from this ground, this result, this condition
to hope for another is to miss my chance to benefit myself
dreaming dreaming dreaming of other conditions
foolish
