warm boot




Mercury spins up
to the music of the hum
I pray for every vessel
that will continue to hold water
and for every vessel
that will not
I stand
before the screened window
the wind parted curtains belly out
to release last night's swelter
I tether what is useful
to my heart, mind and soul

and let the cool wind bear the rest away...
