How to be Alone


Sometimes we surround ourselves
with phone calls and emails
socials and meetings.
Busyness is a
drug.

Invite
and loafe the soul,
that, which speaks in lower tones.
The kitchen table of singularity and solidarity
that sings and celebrates, busy or bored, surrounded or alone.

"I exist as I am, that is enough
If no other in the world be aware I sit content" - Walt Whitman
