So often I am worn out
My mind or body or both
Only still going from gravity’s pull
Keep forgetting to stop
Even as the rubber burns
My sister recently reminded me that I have to step back from working all the time on things (the farm) and do things that I enjoy and not just what would help out around the farm. Working is good and being able to help with things is also good, but there are times when you need to not be burning the oil, whether it be midnight or not.

So well described

Thank you. It was just how I’ve been feeling lately before my sister sat me down and gave me the ‘I appreciate all you’ve been doing, but I’d like you to not keel over any day now’ speech.

A good speech in many ways, necessary to rebalance perhaps. I wish you both the strength of rest and recovery. You are such a gifted poetess my friend
