Surrounded I am
mementoes collected over the years
Snuggled with cup of chai
Fingers wrapped around the pencil
sharpened, ready to go
lamp lit brightest
announcing end to another day
desk accompanied with a chair
one I never picked
nervous fingers make movements
gesturing words and sentences
looking for the rhythm,
breaking out of the block.
Sometimes I think
writing is just my escape
to the land of almost awake!
