Thoughts permeate
as music pipes in
Life,
mosaic of faces and experiences,
pastels of memory
Above the clouds
oxygen so valuable;
Mask, uncomfortable accoutrement,
unveiled upon repast’s serving
Cognac and Baileys
portending to relaxation,
as Helios smiles from the window
Mind flows
filling surface with ink;
On trajectory westbound,
where fragmentation is brewing
Synchronous energy and positivity,
Johann, we meet again
