sits rooted in recliner
unmoving fossil
too tired to exercise
mind, body, faith or patience
middle aged woman
alone with remote control
channel surfs her life
recording all; she often
fast-forwards the now
replays the unchangeable past
aging woman
blustery day dreams
needs fresh breezes
blowing through her hair each morn
asking her to risk comfort
goddess recliner
worshipped daily without fail
feet higher than all
bled me dry with sacrifice
of real present or future
