Running Idle
Small orange onion peels softly away as it unravels
Crisp, almost bright, it feels tense but right
Slowly creaking toward a realization about the universe unwrapping
Unraveling in the dark inner shell
A breath
How long has this lasted? No one can tell
Another breath, this one more alive, more vibrant with color
What is that? Oh just the desk that wood is so soft
His isn’t, ready and waiting for anything
Tense energy flows and stops yet overcomes
Needing to move but feeling lost or locked
NOW! it’s time we hit the door but stop
Let’s start over again
