I don*t expect to live here forever

The last two weeks have been flow-y.  It*s hard to describe.  When something gets cancelled, it somehow is clear what I need to do in its place.  When I am to make a presentation or speak or meet with someone, the words are there.  Often it*s clear that I am not to speak, but instead listen.  I don*t expect to live here forever.  But for now, it*s enough.

I don*t expect to live here forever.
For now
It*s enough.
For the last two weeks
One day has flowed
Into the next
Then
Into the next.
I don*t expect to live here forever.
It*s enough
For now.
Today I have done everything
I need to do
Until the next thing comes.
I don*t expect to live here forever.
I have watched the weeks
Subtract and add,
Divide and multiply.
I know this is
No simple arithmetic
Though I think I knew this
Somehow
Early on.
I don*t expect to live here forever.
I wouldn*t mind
If I did.
Still
For now
It*s enough.
