Down to Earth
By Aileen McPherson
Time lost, brain full of cobwebs, memories
Like ghosts haunt me as I make toast
Coffee please make the aches
Ease grogginess due to medications
Treating pains, out the window I do
Look, city streets cold grey
buildings, steep steel crushing concrete
Blocks landscapes, sky above cries
Trying to drown, a dream within everything
Around, harsh reality not to scream, while
Others around, working through
Writing life down.
