a stop along my way
where i can restore my mana
and regain my sanity

all of your smiles
are without judgement
they are the tent my mind can relax in

a plate of hot perogies
placed before me
like a portal into comfort

the steam
fills my chest
like a sauna for my soul

the dill
wakes my mind
and grounds me in reality

the sound
distracts me from my thoughts
that would otherwise paralyze me
