Ennui

I’ve hit a slight snag
I don’t remember
why I’m doing this

A life full of tasks
vital and mundane
divert my focus

Taking up the pen
is taxing my mind
I’m losing my way

I turn on music
to focus at work
my eyes are opened

A cherished album
The flood gates open
Memories surge forth

“Mirror Images”
adventures in space
poems and essays

Soul revivified
now I remember
why I’m doing this

Slight
