I find comfort
in a cheek to chair dash
a quick dart into a 'time out'
outstretched and yawning
Moments fall
while two silver slivers spin
one slowly
two fast
Time to project
cock and fire
the 'wants'
and weed through the needs
a mental daily ration
Caught in flight
by a gleaming glimpse
a 'want' that I missed
I grasped
I didn't dismiss
Time to jump back
in the swing of the daily grind
work bells chime
but I put back a 'want'
deep in my mind
~~~~~~~~
for your smile to shine?
wicked
