tomorrow

can't waste
sorry spend
another day
sorry morning
at home

because
when home
this magnet
keeps pulling me

sorry
this screen and keyboard
keep pulling me

or
sorry
honestly
I have no
self-control

I did my errands
made calls
three loads of wash
scanned and sent
wrote and replied

but maybe
tomorrow
I'll pack early
and leave
where the Mishkan stood
where Chana prayed
to the Holy City
of the Beit Hamikdash
before work
where Jacob dreamed his dream

it's all so special here
where every town
where every path
and every stone
is history
is in our Bible
