Lull Virginia Salter lull... why do I always want to be up? I like to relax I like it to go slow, for a bit, but then, I start to feel concern for idleness how long will it last? how long will I feel useless, separate, out of touch? why do I always want a smile on the inside? I don’t always feel the need to smile on the outside, although, there have been times when those on the outside wanted one there for them to see so why, if I want them to forgive my frown or stoic grimace, or ‘blah’ face, can’t I forgive the missing smile in me? Narcissus is not my friend, but my foe, yet, I really do seem to want to be amused by others, or by the things I do. why can I not enjoy gray along with the rainbow? won’t rainbow’s colors be brighter in their contrast? © January 16, 2001 |
