Stuck Inside February appeared like a whimsical affair and disappeared like a cheap cigarette I'd abandoned the upstairs window where I sent all those things I chose to forget. March's overhang gives an edge to the rain where I stand with the tips of my toes I'd surmise near death if not for the pain indeed it's life, and that's the way it goes. I come to face sadness and restless years in the low spots that fill up and reflect my hesitations, awaiting till April appears might then I be able to recollect. Is it possible to be so vacant in mind that heart takes priority with gnawing ache though sometimes the pondering succeeds to bind the fear and pain that only numb could make. So I stand with no relation on the edge of tribulation wanting more but not knowing how to get to wherever I'm going with feet such as mine, made of lead, I turn and go back inside instead. |

Another beautiful piece of introspection, dear Dixie. Poetically powerful too! From deep within the answers will crystallize and manifest. Love and hugs. Margherita  |

I almost feel like I have been there, or the journey has just begun. Then perhaps poetry should always feel that way. Christopher a poet who cares |
