20 minutes

by Dani Rose


humidity causes my tears to fall hesitantly
though i'm sure they realize
that salvation indefinitely lies
on the corner of my sleeve.

Nice write lady. Yes, and 20 minutes can seem a life time as can 20 seconds. The worst humidity I can recall is being near St. Louis MO in June. But that was many years ago.

and i thought i was the only who used the sleeve of my shirt as a hospice for tears till the dry? WELCOME!
