Towards sanctuary
Posted: January 19th, 2011, 1:37 am
I carried load after load
of my possessions
to a new space.
As if an alien hand
had ahold of my shoulder,
pulled me amiably along,
through it all.
Saw a few flashbacks,
of moves in the past,
more people, pizzas, beer.
This time just me.
No one else to consider.
Only the moments,
little incredulous bumps of joy.
All those shopping bags
I bought because I forgot,
came in handy.
Held my trinkets well,
while I the robust muse,
hoisted all my favorite things,
towards sanctuary.
