Do you have a home

as comfortable as an old

burrow to an old rabbit

every nook a well-worn purpose

a shady yard to lounge in glowing

with light and warmth at night

on my busier days I feel like

a thrown boomerang

arcing around obstacles

to come back around

and skid to a soft stop

at my front door
