Swell grief

Sail me to

Still waters

Parquet floors

Worn smooth

By unsteady feet

Tipsy twirling

Let’s lie down together

Interlocking fingers

Remember for us both

So I may forget

Four spheres

Anchored around me

Held motionless by

Rag rug coils

Inert, still

One by one

In my careful grasp

I hold them

Up to the light

Dust particles dance

Waltzing sunbeams

Around the room

Eye meets glass

A puzzle to pick apart

Are all choices thus

Mind palace

Brought to life

Its simple decor

Suits me well
