Clark Gormley #86 List

written on used envelopes

sometimes prioritised

numerically

sometimes asterisked

meaning Do Today!

I’m ticked off

until they’re ticked off

after a while

they form a notepad of sorts

bulging the pocket

that’s when the cull occurs

those with only a couple

of uncompleted items

have them copied

to a new list

and the paper is chucked

regretfully

since that’s a document

of achievements

being thrown away
