as i packed my bag,
had one fervent wish.
that like the travels before this,
may this trip rescue me somehow.
untangle meĀ
from my jammed up state.
loosen my gripĀ
on things beyond my control.
now i’m filled with gratitude
for the balm of this generous land.
clarity can be heartbreaking
but it’s the kindest thing to do -
to decide what matters most.
to keep what’s...
door constantly ajar,
swinging back and forth.
solitary space no more.
suddenly, i got roommates.
thought i’d be more territorial.
instead, i’m charmed by their petty hilarity,
their winner-takes-all online poker mentality.
their curiousness in everything me.
in exchange of quite a privacy,
i have some timely, just-as-messy, company.
