#tds150<\/a> The simplest thing you can do | The Daily Stillness<\/a><\/p>\n

Reading the post I am sitting on the couch.<\/p>\n

I start by considering the black faced gull. On a rock surrounded by waves. Single purposed.<\/p>\n

My legs are crossed and my foot gives involuntary bobs to my heart beat.<\/p>\n

The traffic looms in and out of my hearing, later I notice the wind too.<\/p>\n

I decide that moving eyes do not count and lift them from the screen. Yellow roses, a tangle of chargers, books.<\/p>\n

My back is like a question mark, my glasses squint. The phone screen has gone black.<\/p>\n

My wife is moving through the house. I am not sure if I want her to come in and ask me to go for the paper. This is pleasant and slightly unpleasant at the same time.<\/p>\n

I breathe, think of making this post, wonder if I should have set a timer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
