Household of Storms
(tag poem , unedited)
DreamsbyDay: .Household of Storms
DreamsbyDay: .
DreamsbyDay: Below the surface,something , seething.,
DreamsbyDay: waits to penetrate the seeming calm
DreamsbyDay: Insidiously , patient- biding time
DreamsbyDay: as if, for it , the clock did not apply
DreamsbyDay: .
DreamsbyDay: The smiles and forced respectful words remain
DreamsbyDay: while stagnant air and attitides collide
DreamsbyDay: the sweaty scent as nervous laughter fades
DreamsbyDay: and near eruptions forced back down inside
DreamsbyDay: .
DreamsbyDay: Tip toe and whisper as the days turn cold
DreamsbyDay: despite the heat that bubbles in the blood
DreamsbyDay: existence so surreal as to be bold
DreamsbyDay: dams of pain for holding feelings flood...
DreamsbyDay: .
DreamsbyDay: We gather and we pray over our food...
DreamsbyDay: pretending that we function in this mood
