In the Mid-way house
Power surges and ancient cranky desktops
Mice around me that refuse to scamper and stare with
defiance
In the mid-way house, for a week, fortnight, or maybe a
month
April it is, when the saga will end
An outsider, persona non grata, a pariah
Words words words, all mean the same
The mid-way house provides succor someone said
Time slipping fast from my fingers
Do this do that see there see here, she said
I am still, mind refuses to flit around, heart no longer anxious
as earlier
The mid-way house it is
For as long as the state of my present being doesn’t change
