My thoughts are clouds and I am the sky.

My thoughts are fish and I am the ocean.

Pop-ups lure me to something different

but I am writing this poem

My phone murmurs other options

but I am writing this poem.

I want to sit and watch the river.

there was a waterfall

people made it work for them

Now there is a spillway

that was then

this is now

now I am writing this poem

if there even is one

beneath all these distractions
