A STORY. 20. COMFY AS A PILLOW

You’re settled into the comfortable old armchair. You’ve opened MOMENTS and have decided that today it will be Comfy as a Pillow. That’s what you’re feeling.

A love poem! You hadn’t expected that, especially not

passionately
            to blow the quiet
            to have a riot
                       to join together
                              ardently
            to have a heady diet
                       of luxurious
                              intimacy
            I wouldn't often try it
                      it's so unlike my everyday
                              me

But it sure is a pleasure
something that we treasure
                            enormously

Hmmm …

passionately
            to blow the quiet
            to have a riot
                       to join together
                              ardently

That isn’t quite like comfy as a pillow.

Yet …

Yet I still
feel relaxed as a yogi
            meditating on a lotus
            chanting interminably

You give a quiet chuckle, imagining that yogi meditating on a lotus, chanting interminably.

You read the poem again,

then close the book.

Before you put the book back on the top of the stack, you notice the book under it. LOVE GAMBLE.

Maybe next time …
