On Mental Furniture

If you're off colour
bean bag it
If you're not in the zone
couch it
If you can't center it
spa it

How is your mental furniture?

It says a lot about you
if anyone should see it
who would you allow on it
should anybody need to

Mental furniture in your head
the place you go to
to chill out, relax, regroup

it's your inner therapy
not everyone is extroverted
though that's the trend
what shape does it take

inside your head?

Wow, deeply interesting poem, Uwe. What is that mental furniture that we create mentally, and are we familiar with it, enough to identity it? Great expression in this metaphorical piece. Enjoyable overall. Check out some of my poems, might find some you like. Peace.
