156. Moving (Myshkin, 2021) · free verse
Alone,
Healthy and free,
I move through the world
With purpose, power and precision.
Two years ago I was dormant,
Worse than dead,
Body overweight,
Spirit suffering,
Spine buckling with
My inability to cope
With corporate life.
Today I saw three butterflies,
All in a row,
Brunettes with frosted white tips,
On my hike to a hot spring.
I have so much energy.
