The poem “Pause a Spell” is about the desire to engage in “depression napping”.
Perhaps the world will pause a spell withdraw the need to interact no place to be except to drowse cocoon myself in sad malaise so many paths must be walked fulfilling needs beyond the pain by rote or just the will to move these mimic life in their resolve contrast the shell that begs for rest a place to slumber with the angst to acknowledge that life is done while sadness saps more than its share leaving less than what's portrayed on the mask and in the sway while the impostor seeks glad rest forever far from duties' realms.
