Day 29 Today’s Copy

NaPoWriMo prompt:

“In “After Turning the Clocks Back,” Jennifer Moxley links present with past, using a few well-placed details to invoke both a sense of the daily “now” and a nostalgic sense of the speaker’s long-ago life. In your poem today, similarly, compare your everyday present life with your past self, using specific details to conjure aspects of your past and present in the reader’s mind.”

Loved this prompt but honestly the day was too busy, my brain can’t start something new now.

I’ve taken the words from texts I received today with an “o” in them, in the order they arrived and then punctuated them to try to squeeze out a little meaning.
