I LOVE MY BOOK

If My Book were near Me
would I write?
Yes, I’ll go get It
& bring It outside
I thought, earlier
to write a poem titled
“What Is Depression?”
but all I could come up with
is It’s The Opposite
of what My Life is now —
One of fulfilment, contentment
& Big Ideas
to ground The Rest of The World
into Balance
“to ground The Rest of The World
into Balance”
Now there’s a project. worth devoting time too. (Though I suspect you were already thinking that.)
That’s right, Ben. It’s my latest project and the one I’ll devote the rest of My Life to.
It appears I read you well. 🙂
