7 Weeks Off for Rehab

A Stitch in Fourteen

Before I do this, I'll do that.

And after I've finished a few,

I'll finally understand the history

of the Middle East. Crease

origami candy dishes;

blog surf the threads,

while also counting knots

in an Oriental carpet,

go to the gym for elliptical

training, teach the cockatoo

to dance, pressing cookies

into a moulded baking sheet,

sit still in the back

bedroom, rehearsing enlightenment.
