Sulking| Soaking| Refocusing

Sucking my teeth…

had a rough week of peopling

didn’t find what I was seeking

cursed the air and coddled my feelings

cried on the inside and was unkind

in thoughts and sought chocolate and

received solace in Pandora saving my life

raising serotonin on a deeply cellular level

thank heaven for throwback tunes smoothing

my ruffled feathers gathering this Heather keeping

one from becoming undone and unglued as I

weathered the blues and basked in lavender

Epsom salt baths with eucalyptus drops and

caught myself daydreaming of better days and

cheating the moment whispered affirmations

confirmation of my impatience while soaking in

my sentiments exhaling I give in

knowing I’m gone be alright
