A Delicious Escape
Immersing Oneself in the Process
Amber honey flows out from the jar.
Butter gleams with the shine of its thick new coating.
Creaming them together, I get lost in the luscious pulse.
Dreaming of a world where I can sink down into it -
Ease my body into the smooth, sweet mixture,
Feel the butter melt into my skin.
Getting my rubber spatula, I
Hold onto the dream for another moment.
I imagine,
Just briefly, I
Know what it's
Like to have this concoction folded over
Me like my sheets at
Night.
Oh to
Play in the airy dreamland of my thoughts.
Quietly, I
Reach for the
Single most intoxicating
Thing in the room and
Uncap the
Vanilla extract.
When will I again come up off my
X-axis like this?
You just don't understand until you feel the
Zest of the process.
