Truly happy for
their cause and celebration
Still wishing they’d leave

October 27, 2009

Exhausted yet filled
with the ardent splendor of
blissful potential

Eyes red from data
entry, sleep-deprivation,
and tears of great joy

I embrace myself
with sisterly love: a sage
green woolen sweater

Respite complete, I
return – melancholy felt
in every key stroke.

choose your own adventure: career style

fulfillment eludes
time to let go – erase my
sense of who i am

is the picture of
the real thing more comforting
than the lack of it?

spoiled, self-indulgent
lonely and afraid now that
my choice is removed

the wanting, having -
ambition and fulfillment -
pale. irrelevant.

so far: yes
again i awoke
to chilly relentless rain -
will i waste this day?

for nicer chewing.

Rhubarb pie, Smoked Dutch
ham dinner, chocolate lab,
and love compose home.

Sweetbreads hypnotize
me as delicacies do.
Their cost brings me back.
