I’m listening to David Sedaris on my trips from school to school.

He is such an honest writer.
Brave.

In D&D a month or so ago, our Dungeon Master said
“Talk is a bonus action.”

I mean, he also said “Roll for your crocodile.” But focus, please:
“Talk is a bonus action.”

I think maybe writing is too.

So I’m writing in little spaces
Bravely, I hope.

I don’t have any D&D dice to roll in my regular life
which is all for the best since I still ask
“A D20?” after a year of playing

So instead of rolling for insight or perception
I’m writing
sometimes in secret
little spaces

One day I’ll share
even though
Talk is a bonus action.
