Swivel Joint
Siblings of circumstance,
We pose with wheels touching.
Soaked in vibrant fuschia, purple and pale pink,
Our adjoined waiting breaks
Into a splendor of staggering motion
shifting from one pattern to the next
We are one, two,
Housed together. At home together.
Two halves, bonded with periwinkle strips of thick-bodied lace
Siblings of circumstance,
We wait wheels touching
We move wheels touching
In revolutions of pink and periwinkle
