Can’t this be life?
(One continuous stretch of ribbon)
Just
Smooth satin bells
Fluttering slowly around the room
Graceful drums beating softly
(A sound like bubbles popping)
And thin gauzy strips of light
Drifting from the cold window
Sitting here
Gently tugging from my chapped lips
A string of pale words
Is all I want
(Need)
Just an easy peace
In the fading pinks and baby blues of the day
Where thoughts come out
With one steady tug
