Today

I purchased new glasses

Not trusting myself 

To make this decision

Alone 

Because something happens

When I shop:

glasses shoes bras tiaras

I go to a place in my mind where

Kaleidoscopes and rainbows 

Are the height of perfection

Circus music plays

Clowns are sexy

Once home  

I open my bag

Shocked to see

A purchase

My chi can not flow through

It’s 

Completely inappropriate 

For business

This time

Safeguarding myself against 

Such a purchase 

I took along

The voice of reason

A teenager 

I grew from scratch 

Or perhaps a mix

She’s not as reasonable 

As I had hoped.
