Listening to Laika, whining with merlot
wondering which way to go

Wondering whether or not
to go

yet the time is ripe
for growing...
for showing another side, another dimension

even if the skin I’m in is comfortable
yet it feels incomplete,
only partially sketched in
on the canvas of life

I am a still life

waiting for a new brushstroke,
a new pigment that never yet

existed

refreshing life’s meanings
for the world to see

something...someone

perhaps some thought that might be

unique

listening to

Laika.

Great lines, dear Kacy.

A hug to both.

Love, Margherita
