I called in dead today
I forgot how great that is
mostly it's best on sunny days
I remember in the dead of winter
calling in sick in winnipeg
and feeling so luxurious lying in the rays
like a cat
today being warm
I took off to the woods, where no one would find me
and I read, slept, daydreamed, watched an eagle overhead
finally feeling at peace
a little
with the decision I've made
to go home
I'm so happy and I can do this
without guilt
I'm so happy!
