Lying in bed in the dark I realize that I forgot how to fall asleep. It used to be so easy.  I am tired.  I keep moving, looking for a familiar position to launch into sleep. I take long deep breaths, I counted backwards from 50, I sigh and twist into another bed position. Several hours later I am successful.

The beach photographer flattens the pile of cardboard boxes and jams them into the recycle bin. Garbage day again.

The tall man checks for water damage in the basement rooms.  He rewards himself with a handful of licorice. I used to keep see’s candy but now I keep a jar of licorice candy.  Thank you, Amazon. More rain today, more licorice. More rain today.  I think it will never stop.

Still reading THE BODY and still amazed with how my body works. Good body I tell myself.  What would I do without you.
