THE AIRLOCK

THE AIRLOCK

 

To say so would be unkind,

But one must overhaul the mind….

Such a transition

Seems imposition,

It’s time to ramp up not unwind,

–

One’s thoughts running bold and free,

And actions together must be…

For going to work

Isn’t knee-jerk,

Requiring attention from thee.

–

Leaving home on time,

Essential like rhythm to rhyme…

Where worlds intersect

Is travel direct,

Away from comfort sublime.

 

–Jonathan Caswell
