write quick(for the record)

not nearly as hot as yesterday

got home from work
picked up the pen
write quick
what else would I do
 
for the record
overhead traffic route
a plane every twenty minutes
and on ground
a train every ninety minutes
been out for the last time tonight
the dog snores on the floor
 
this time only 8 minutes
between the planes
this time around
maybe a circular descent
put it down on a page
if the plane was a pen
anyone else listening
to the night
seeing these words
verbal interpretation
of these strange thought
visualizations wish I could paint
 
for the record
only slept five hours
last night
suppose that’s all I needed…
