precocious

I could tie my shoes since
before I was born, it's just
that I hadn't
had any on. So
then, when I was -
born
- distracted at once,
I forgot for a while.

A bit
of a dunce.

I've been getting ahead of
myself ever since, never
failing to notice much
later the proven points
that I'd earlier missed. By then

convinced,

it was locked, knocked loose,
pulled back together
and fixed.

I have
always made
time for this.
