without a care


three quarters full, but still
half empty and spilling
out from top or bottom

can’t quite remember
how to forget sadness
comes and goes back

to wherever there is
a spot within me that
is never sad

seven spots on arms
serving as constant
permanent reminders

of the most important
but simple ideas
that came as quietly

as this one did and
does any of this confuse
the closed minded

refuse to hear words written
continuing without a care…
