Somewhere
between thoughts and actions
I have lost myself

I limbo,
arms outstretched,
under the weighty pole

The pole
does not own me, hold me,
but everyone is watching

It is not
the pole, it is not the people -
it is my own pride

Smile. Freeze.
Let all the flashbulbs pop
so that everything looks up to par

To stand
is to topple the balance,
to ruin the unspoken spell

So
my back is breaking
under the strain of this pose

I like to multi-task: wife, writer, nurse, Christian, ne'er do well. I do all with equal gusto.
