The Room
by Curtis M. Joseph

"The Room"

Mahogany is breathing.
Far away from the desk I sit.
Drapes flowing from the breeze of the open window.
Evergreen is the scent I smell, yet sit far away.
The globe in the corner, maps to many journeys.
Distant is the travels I will make.
The telescope near the desk.
Eyes of my world.
Cotton sheets that envelops the bed.
Resting the mind is my heaven.
Postcards that decorate the wall.
Passports with voices.
The chair that sits in the middle of the room.
Swivels with no purpose.
The banner, that looms from the ceiling.
Aging with decadence.
The steel chest box.
Sits marked and weary.
The books on the shelves.
Markers of history.
Tis quiet and seduced
thy dream.
