we will know who we are

indie author K

Dress yourself up a little different this holiday season. Streak your hair with pink or blues. Be completely proud of yourself; you are a flawed wonder of the universe. And by the way, you don't have to be married to your mobile phone anymore. Massage the attention span with inaction, try and go tech-free for a day, go full force family breakfast! Try not to give in to the vibration. Stop your finger from swiping the screen. Your children need you. They have no milk in their cereal. Nobody taught them how to soften up a situation. Knead the hard candy of routine, until it softens into taffy. Stretch to the sky without a gps signal. Your brother and sister will soon follow. It's okay to concede you got lost, we all did! I swear we will know who we are.

will you
give us a sign
some simple
design?

give us blue
prints

will you
bury our digits
in the sand?

wash away anything
everything
bland

tell us
we're okay
in gale force winds



releasing
our sins to thin
air

thicken the roux
make us whole
like wheat flour

will you
help us flower
too?

can you
add a dimension
to memory?

enlightening
all what we
 know

what we
knew?

please

give us a sign
some concrete

design

print us
in dresses inordinate

excessive and
dreamy and
relevant
