Help me keep on top, no time to stop.

Green helps me realize that whine can only last about three months every year.

12/11/14

Lose my balance and perception

12/12/14

Not having to worry about you showing up, because I know you’ll always be there!

12/13/14

Never to be rushed while everything else can be hushed

*Not every poem included in this book is dated in chronological order.  This is not an oversight on my part. Rather, I have made some changes and substitutions.

-J.L.S.

I am smitten by the idea that I

Have all this room to write and less

Room to fight what no longer has me

Under its nefarious spell!

Having lost interest, I don’t think I want

To go back now, not feeling all

Which I had only moments ago.
