joey k poetry

what do I have to do?

nothing.

I need to do nothing
that does not already
come easily, unasked,
despite it all, as they say,

these words come out of me
lovingly.
in a totally different way
than ever before.

all I have to do

is it.

I am doing what
I always dreamed of.

I am writing. that is
what makes me happy.

I get to do this.
I get to wake up in the morning
and do this every day.

oh, what joy!
