I lay on my bed drifting
In poetic play of everyday life
Poetry everywhere;
In a friendly crease that I want to keep on my sheet
The window pane that showcases the crimson setting sun
The familiar chill in the air
Neighborly chatter
Tinkering of the cans
A careful and delicate feline walk
The slurp of the mojito
The clinking of the ice cubes
The brush strokes on a portrait
The loops of smoke blown through
The very edge of a cigarette bud
Glinting in the firelight
Virtue, to see beauty in the mundane
Fascinating how
How we all see everything
And yet we see it differently

I lay on my bed drifting
In poetic play of everyday life
Poetry everywhere;
In a friendly crease that I want to keep on my sheet
The window pane that showcases the crimson setting sun
The familiar chill in the air
Neighborly chatter
Tinkering of the cans
A careful and delicate feline walk
The slurp of the mojito
The clinking of the ice cubes
The brush strokes on a portrait
The loops of smoke blown through
The very edge of a cigarette bud
Glinting in the firelight
Virtue, to see beauty in the mundane
Fascinating how
How we all see everything
And yet we see it differently
