Turtles

Today I am procrastinating
some things by doing others
and a lot of the other things
include writing, like here, now
Somehow I convince myself
that writing in a new place is
somehow better, and safer
than the place I've run from.
So I'm hiding from Facebook
here on my poetry blog, where
I hide from my regular blog,
bemoaning the reality that
I'm followed wherever I go
by the spirals of my fears.
