Not lonely
but alone
in my own space
I find my place
in this world
psyche recycles
at my own pace
brings me peace
in the here and now
no high or low
mood swings
time to make
my own
mind up
about things
play guitar
or sing
No one knocking
upon the door
wanting more
than I can give
no need to try
to figure out
just what the hell
they’re all about
No projections
no fierce tempers
no need to be upfront
or behind fences
Stillness, quiet
no riot in my head
no not emerging
from my bed
no weight of lead
or yakketty voices
no pressure
to make the best
consumer choices
or buy the latest
technological marvel
I find my marbles
when I’m
not lonely
but alone
