there’s the work you do
there’s the work you should do
& there’s the work you’re paid to do
& there’s the work you say you’d do
there’s the work that’s work to do
or there’s playing at work to do

for always there’s work you know you should do
the work you know you know how to do
& the work you work without a clue how to do
the work in the now you ought to do
the words that would work if allowed so to do
so work the words – for the work is to do

(18.i.09)

that gets today's state of mind about right.
