the process needs assessment
the liquid is dark green
smells of eucalyptus
a need to be healed
take all the precautions necessary
bathe in lavender foam
reading and trying to unwind
and avoid dreaming of a past
involving ocean views
at Half Moon Bay
city vistas from the 86th floor
coffee from Peet's
doughnuts from Krispy Kreme
a time when the future was bright
heat surrounds as pages turn
offering a glimpse into
the other side of the American Dream
I think about writing
through the difficulty
epically moving this soundtrack
