Five Minutes
 

pausing a moment
ensconced in a favourite chair
before the window
muscles quiet but ready
waiting for the gun
five minutes
before the day’s official start
eyes closed
against the low sun’s glare
feeling its power
touch
and burn my face
(yes, even in September)

simple things
remind me I have senses
remind me I’m alive
