the startled soul grasps

at dust motes without vision

fields without promise

wiping dust devils from my eyes
and panic sets in for me
when I find I've run out of coffee

loved the write, kokopeli

It is scary when that happens.  What the soul needs to do then, is to look with its heart and through its eyes at the world from a different angle.  That same soul will find, if it looks hard enough, solace and happiness, even if short-lived until it repeats the process.
