movie
A personal reflection on recovery, renewed energy and the simple rituals that bring a sense of peace at the end of the day.
in this movie,
i breathe a deep sigh,
just paid outstanding debts,
the creditors
were getting forceful.
the evening draws down,
the curtain closing on this wonderful day,
i drop a pill. i’ve missed one or two,
due to the fact that one was feeling good.
blood no longer anemic,
energetic, motivated again,
writing & reading as i listen
to fela kuti’s “water no get enemy.”
soon i’ll be taking a warm bath.
light a candle –
& meditate me floating
in the Mississippi River Delta,
fully naked,
looking up towards the sunlight.
