I’m against the wall
I ask you, what would you do
-if you knew these shoes?

Mind unrestrained, pulse fleeting, balance -not a priority.

Sit quietly.
Wrap around.
Hold.
Breathe.
Feel.

Mind content, pulse secured, balanced.

Cracker crumbs.
Ice cream drips.
Candy spills.
In the back of the car.
And sticky fingerprints
from honey donuts
all over the windows.

Driving rain Then fair
Is what they have forecasted
Cool Hot Wet again
