Cherry picked



i'm too tired
to sleep
the news
is still
cold
stark

today
the days
seem
blended into
one another

people morphing
into their
chosen backgrounds
of wallpapered
unassuming

the air, dense
almost solid

hard

is it the loneliness,
missing you,
or the fact
that you're slowly fading,
that's good for me?

that should be best...

at least until
i take a deep breath
and finally







fill my lungs
of you.

My #Nopoo from 2/17/21.... I can't recall who or why this was intended (probably just an abstract construct) .... Yet, I found this moment moving, when I went back to reread the NoPoo posts from last year through this year .... It really is truly amazing to have so many poetic moments "journalized" (and kind of memorialized) via that forum. I am extremely glad to be participating.
