Rest

Sue says,
"Rest is a myth"
I nod and quietly
disagree

Rest and I
know each other well
I like how it's always
waiting to show itself

It quietly sits beside me
every morning
And looks at me in wonder
when I read Psalms

It lingers around
winking now and then
when he and I
read my poems

It screams and shouts
between eight and nine
when we dance in
drama class

Why can't reset find
Sue too?
I hate keeping a secret
from her
