Catching up with drinks

The words initially flowed

Until speakers screamed

I bounce through the days

Hitting walls and losing speed

But I need to bounce

From letters to sounds

Then small words are sounded out

Unlatching the gate

Some prepped for the game

We explored the clearance racks

In deserted stores

The house was quiet

I spun through the rooms until

Slowed by printed word

Listless on the couch

Meetings pushed my escape time

A drink summoned sleep

White space in my day

I wandered around the cubes

Babbled away time

The corner table

Observing conversations

Noise shelters the words

A statement then check

Catching glances to align

Design the future
