Spinning Make Believe

I relish your care
I savor your news; eagerly I frame my own
there are many gadgets stealing my attention
distractions too many to count
they claim my day; they seduce my interest
evening envelops me with quizzical whispers
where had my day gone
I frittered it away
under the wind tossed sails of necessity
convinced by must
a deceptive habit
an assigned routine
of dominating purpose
I am no slave to ritual
this I am certain
yet on occasion
I must recall
my endearments
kindling smiles
possessed of meaning
where true as not
busily spinning
life effort

into make believe.
