i always forget
that this globe
spins,
even when i feel
like im stuck.
somewhere,
someone is falling in love
at the same time
that im falling apart.
...
i hold a snow globe --
the one from the family
christmas, back in 2016.
i shake it --
watch it storm inside,
and i think,
maybe im still learning
how to settle
after everything
swirls.
after the mess.
...
the world is round,
but it never
feels like it comes back
to me.
