to do

before
turning in
collapsing
getting into bed

I wrote
my "to do" list
for today

typical routine
since
just as I'm about to
go to sleep

lots of
undone chores
haunt my mind

so
I try to
take them out
so they won't disturb

and now
that my coffee
and update
and mail-reading
finishing

I'll check the
quizzes and tests
and check off
the list
of things
to do
