dreaded routine

making moves
toward passion and
fulfillment for work…
it’s fearful and
challenging, but I
know my heart will
be healthier and
happier away from
the robotic
everydayness my life
has become.

to give my gifts to
willing users for
growth inspires me
to seek literary
comfort among
young minds again.

it’s my home away
from home and
miles away from the
dreaded routine of
grinding to line the
hefty pockets of
groany men who
don’t even know my
name.
