Sometimes you need
a touch of whimsey
to ward off the
demons of depression
of which
there are many
like an overgrown garden
growing wild and free
filled with daffodils
and peonies
any which way
they will
a whipperwill.
-nature orders
structure and desire
desire the unfulfilled womb
for whom-
Whimsy
where are you
soon
and lightness
to guide me
through the darkness
so repugnant
to me.
I turn to you whimsey
to your unchartered fancy
where angels dance
on marshmallow clouds
out of harm's way
someday
so shall I
someday
