I've been tending my package mechanically flawed as it is
changing location seemed the flaw in the life
moving through life quick as I did
married by twenty-one to an italian talented chef
'Guio' his momma explained to me on her parting call
Strife, indeed! Evictions & car repair ever the drama
Hotels, Catering, Sm, then MS
CCSVI revelation all she knew to keep going
getting up & tending the package
Realizing now, the hurts I've suffered, forgotten
lived over through and beyond
I wonder, at blue skies heaven and winged things
Singing my song, matching the flute
proving my worth, testing my mechanism
Jonathan Livingston Seagull reminds me
flight is solo and so is art
longing the attention of a connoisseur
a steward a heart invested
my plot?
