Lingering Sojourn

resting on a lucite cane
clustered patches of purple velvet
Lingering Sojourn

Dreaming of slumber parties

In rose, plum, and coral

I am again recovering in solitude.

Longing for respite,

In mauve, orange and bits of sky,

I am unable to match your hasty pace.

A lucent extension of my body,

Holds my weight

Moves with my rhythm

Exposes the unsteady

I am rapid cycling

Forever in giddy repeats.

I am dreaming of slumber parties.

I am longing for respite.
