Where Do You Put Tired?
© 2020 by P Michael Biggs
Everybody gets tired.
Marathon runners get tired.
Housewives do.
Farmers, ranchers,
and factory workers get tired.
Even writers and other creators.
After a while the brain
just needs a break from
creating and thinking and
going places no one
has gone before.
My friend Seth says that
people who take their turn
get tired.
I get that.
It’s scary taking your turn.
It’s exposing your underbelly,
and getting naked in the real sense.
That is exhausting, and tiring.
I put my tired to bed
for a good 9-10 hours
every night.
That restores me.
I dream, and snore,
and dream some more.
I rest and rejuvenate,
and come morning
my body says, “Thank You”
and “Go have a great day.”
We all get tired.
Just find a place to park it
every once in a while
and then go back
to your exciting life.
