I Want To Be a Circle

Every morning I wake up.
I find that I am
An inefficient square.

I hack off the corners,
try to roll through my day
an efficient circle.
.
Despite my best efforts
when I wake up..
I am a square again!


Recently began to
Rejoice in my
inefficentcy

the world needs more happy squares
to slow society
down a little bit .

  1. Good for you Melanie. I love your blogs. Last night I dreamt I went to visit you and was so delighted with your children, hugged them, talked to them.

    Be a square. Or whatever. You have so many wonderful stories to share with us.

  2. What's wrong with being square? It might slow us down. Humble us. But I would bet the world would be a nicer place if we all were more square than rolling around.

  3. Hey... You are absolutely correct! I never thought of it like that! Circles can become steamrollers who roll over everybody else with their speed and efficency.
