Idling

We sit
behind a wheel
blasting cool
air
(sometimes hot)

Waiting
for our
turn
at the window
to exchange
a few dollars for
a crispy chicken
sandwich
or
a double
bacon burger
(with cheese)

We sit
idling
passing gas
to an already
choking sky

Shouldn’t we
Be using
a walk-up
window
instead?

I really hate talking about myself, but if I have to... I’m K.L. McDaniel, the person behind TheOtherKLM. I’m an introvert with extrovert moments, a fitness-minded person fighting later-age fat, and someone trying to keep life somewhat organized without pretending it isn’t a mess. Here, I write about the things I keep coming back to: movement, mental health, learning, self-awareness, and the strange little contradictions that make people interesting. I’m not here to act like I have everything figured out. I’m here to think through it, laugh when possible, and maybe find a little balance in the middle of the clutter. So, that’s me. More or less.
