CINQUAIN #30

Frightened!

I realize that I

Need to shelter myself

From my own commitment today

Because

I am

Likely to throw

Myself into any

Project full throttle at first but

Without

Being

Aware of the

Ever present storm in

My body, and it is always

Coming

It means

A lot to me

Putting order to my

Life’s work, which is life, of course, but

In form

For an

Offering of

Art cards and poetry

Endless questions rolling off my

Tongue now.
