"Milky"

Interesting
How the Fates are
Fickle creatures/women/gentle ones

Waiting
For the lights to come on
I sit, listening for the ringing in my ears

Wishing
I could feel warm fur
And the surety of wood floor beneath me

Blue and white
Broken chimney and built-in bookshelves
Windows to the future

Imagining
Laying the rugs upon the worn planks
Dancing naked in the darkness

Hoping
I will not be disappointed
As my dreams wait to become curdled
