Soul/Shell

Just another morning

Drowning in tea
Sleep’s languor
Perched on my eyelids
Zombie walking
In the dark room
Fluid motions
A kaleidoscope

Pinks and blues
May play in the sky
This house is empty
A person stays here
Walks. Breathes. Eats.
The clock also ticks

Butterfly’s cocoon
Chicken’s eggshell
This house
My oyster shell
