Grounded
I have been pinned to this spot
for decades.
Winds blow hard through here. Often.
Rains sweep across the ground
in torrents.
At times like these I revel in this possibility
I just might become unpinned.
Yet, here I am. Still. Stuck.
The proverbial butterfly
in the shadow box
hanging with wings spread;
colors glowing;
people passing to Oooo and Ahhhh
Yet, I remain hopeful.
My desiccated body
will soon shrivel.
The heavy steel pin will no longer hold me
And with the coming storm
I will blow away. Upwards-
to finally feel the world.

Beautiful, Tina! I love the idea of disintegration as an escape.
