9/2/2015

 

A life constructed
for entertainment. 

Somehow, this 
has just been
revealed. 


Meanwhile,
the crickets. 

Meanwhile,
the half eaten fruit
on the desk. 

Meanwhile
that mad magic 
of texting. 


From this place
I do something brand new
in the bath. 

Don’t know why,
body moves,
face below,
bubbles blow. 

Surprises arise,
just like this. 

I make something new
in the pot on the stove. 

Don’t know how,
body moves,
seaweed sways,
bubbles boil. 

Fresh ginger adds kick,
just like this.


Now I look in the mirror 
for a place to call home

and her body
sways softly, 
like whoa,
like a picture,

like awareness
with nowhere to go.
