Thanks to Margo Roby's post for sending me to Poets United and the prompt for this piece.
My "written in the now," off the cuff poetic exploration, inspired by the word focus:
Focus
I can't focus without my coffee.
And I'm starving, I need food, maybe toast
and yogurt. I love that new Greek yogurt
and then I should stop at the little girl's room.
No, first, focus. Maybe I'll just wipe
down these counter tops, change the sheets
and start a load of laundry and then
I'll focus. And wrap a few more Christmas
presents and address a get well card
to Margie and then, no wait, what was it
I was going to do first, oh yes ... focus.

Haha- I can so relate to that. Sometimes I feel as ADD.
Merry Christmas!
