trying to be normal
making plans for holiday(s)
not a holy day
but gawd all mighty what a toll
it takes
the sky to fly
the home away from home
the road less taken in a car
of dubious making
the choosing of the date and then
the moulding of the cake
trillions of web browser tabs
of my choosing
and in the end
the lingering doubts
that maybe this time
will be no different,
a last minute cancellation
making these
stressful times
a wasted
effort
