New Home…2 months later
My room is painted lavender
My clothes are all set right.
A cat sleeps on my bedspread.
He spoons with me at night.
I’ve got a coffee maker, a space heater, a shelf.
Sunflower in a cider bottle, I’ve made love in my bed,
I’ve got my painted pictures: the peacock and the ocean.
Postcards on my closet door
From all my friends in motion.
And though I’ve gone far away from all the things I’ve known.
Everything is a-okay and I think I am home.
