The Good Kind of Boring
       

If you're reading a book
& the animals talk, it's a fable. If you're walking to work
& the neighbor's dog barks, it's Monday. Today at the lake
the ducks thanked me for my bread crust by asking for more.
Lunch break was over i left the park but the ducks followed
me to the office, & waited outside of the door, as i stared
at the screen & moved imaginary numbers from there to
there. Once work was over i walked home & the ducks
forgot all about the lake. In the front yard i ate more bread
& they ate more crust but needed water. In the bathtub
i got clean & they waited to swim. Then they slicked their
feathers & i went to bed.
                                                        It was silent as always.
