Waiting Rooms

Waiting rooms,

needles in the bin,

all quietly 

contemplating.

Waiting rooms

with pictures:

bullet points 

and ticks and crosses.

Places to remake 

dark futures,

by turning them 

into new projects.

Maybe one more year

living without fear 

thinking of something else,

crafting new prospects.

Remaking the soul

in a clay oven 

having been   

thrown on the 

pottery wheel

changing my form 

hoping to relearn again.
