My Voice Through the Halls

Pens and pencils are a memory.

A vacation from paper, as well.

I am folding inside.

I am folding and ruminating and then blooming again.

Spontaneous! Fascinating!

I’m ready to be famous!

But for now, all I can focus on is another blanket, another blanket, another blanket.

Some better food.

And maybe going home someday.
