Fog Inside Quilt

Fog Inside Quilt
Sep 2011
Claremont

I make a cup of hot chocolate
A snack of cheese tomatoes and onions on a toast
Press play on the Beltek DVD player, the only one
that will play without asking to change the region code
Remote control does not work,
Adjust the projector, the screen
And run to my designated place in the quilt,
Into the system of covering well
And snuggle against

no one.
And watch 

nothing.

the snack 
was never made since.

the hot chocolate mix 
never bought since.

I cover myself clumsily in another quilt
     Keep the world out
And into the fog where all is 
still well.
