Sitting on milk crates…
I consoled & convened
With my countrymen,
For only they seemed to
Share my commissary.
Flicking through newspapers…
I read the images
Engrossed,
For they were my tongue
But, my mouth felt like a sturdy cage
And my tongue was a slithering snake
Trying to make its way out, the easy way
Humming folk songs…
I harked back on my
Haphazard past,
Had it left my heart
Forever scarred?
To do list:
1. Go for a dip
2. Star gaze
3. Visit the zoo
Finding enjoyment in the lot,
I felt as free as a firefly.
Appreciation-
The one thing
I needed
This new world
Brings out my best
Now,
I’d rather connect
Hearts
And
Minds
Than shuffle along with the lost
As I once did…
thanks
