Face

Games, manipulation

conscious agreement

I will look at you

through my window

Crisply snapping

freezing breaths

in and out warmer

still cold

I’m lonely

Or lazy

I cannot decipher anymore

The word “capable” floated among

Tea leaves

Capable of what, I haven’t decided

yet

I drink it before the water cools

No phone call

No email

Am I running out of time?

Oh yeah, I forgot to be grateful

At least I’m not the subject of a

****** documentary

Those things are brutal

Yet, I’m sickly entertained

Maybe we’ll care for the homeless this year

Sweet optimism from inside my house

My sofa

My blanket

My cat and TV

Is there meaning in wool and cotton blend?

It’s called home

home in a good way

Tinged with the flavor of innocence

Mmmmmmm

It smells delicious

And smell is 80% of our taste
