doors open... outside light enters...
cats sit side by side waiting for treats,
coffee warms in the microwave and
pods await to be pierced... a channel
of news is selected... we listen, perhaps
learn something new... but, more than
likely just a reiteration... negativity slurs
the future and obscures the past... we
squat in mental sinkholes with our toys,
aberrations of our youth... telltale signs
of change are mailed in daily to the
census takers who patrol the borders
between our states of mind hoping to
see latent signs of life... a green life
surrounds our southern styles while
legumes replace beef - salads replace
starch and soups sit on the breakfast
table for us to dip our french toast into,
a morning solution awakens from the
night - morning moisture clings to us
like wet clothes - our eyes open to the
reality of what life has now become.
