Emerged as I
by Alison McKenzieLit a new candle.
Soaked in the steaming heat of the bath,
Let the waves of soothing music
Wash over my soul,
Shampooed my hair,
Pulled the plug,
Let the past drain away.
Carefully dried all the excess,
Combed out the tangles,
Disposed of every loose end.
Blew out the candle.
Emerged as I,
Naked,
Into the light.
