poetry from Anselm Brocki

Solving

Instead of forever
looking for worthy
problems to solve
in order to become
breathlessly absorbed
living vibrantly for only
a few prized moments
because of so many
tedious, repetitive tasks
to perform, why,
in a more perfect
world, couldn’t
challenging problems
be on the breakfast
table neatly, discretely
like spoon, bowl, and
napkin each morning,
ready for my total
attention, puzzlement,
and startling crescendo
solutions?

--Anselm Brock
