Struggling with Dust

by Chris Sorrenti


Struggling

No
Not in turmoil
More struggling but OK
As with most I imagine
But there again
Haven’t we always been
Overwhelmed with everything
Pandemic
Inflation
War
Hospital system in crisis
Challenges of growing old
As someone once remarked
Can’t believe how quickly it’s gone by

Dust

Dust is my friend
My constant companion
And no matter how hard
I shoo him away
He’s back the next week
Like a love sick puppy
A steady reminder
Of what I too will be someday

The inevitability of life through the simple objects that fill the space around us. Dust reminds us there always something to relate to.
