Afterthought from Cool Down by Bridal Party

Take off my shoes1
Open the curtains to check out the hotel view
I’m almost home
This weather has afforded me one more night alone

I always dreamt of walking this walk
I never meant to be an afterthought

Untuck the sheets
Turn on the TV for some company
Too late to nap so I
Steep my body in a lukewarm bath

Staring at the interface of two ideals
Drawn to the collective and the in-between
This reflection cleared the way
So my affinity to place

Could settle like dust on the kitchen counter
I settle like dust on the kitchen counter
Like dew on a morning flower
A hush in the evening hour

I settle down
