A top on the edge of table

whirls in a circle until it flies                                                  off

hoping someone grabs it before it hits the floor

 

Do I have the same degree of faith?

as I spin,  drunk and dazzled 

 

in and around your orbit 

your windchime earrings

your scented scarves

 

You are sitting on the floor

legs crossed  

in your cupped hands is a top                                                                          safe and sound  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Falling               down,     Spin me                   ‘round.
No one said this would be easy
now,                 But you’ve gotta keep moving somehow.
