wouldn’t the world
be a kinder
safer space
if adults carried blankets?
plush and soft
providing instant comforting
or sand-filled weighted
keeping us grounded
tethered to the day?
until the day dawns
that I dispatch
with convention
to that degree
I bare my foot
(painted and be-ringed)
curl it under me
rudimentarily effective
solid in pressure
thigh firm on arch
I soothe myself

My husband and I both have blankets in our cars for emergencies…it’s amazing how many times they have been needed 🙂

I also have one in my car for emergencies. But it is not soft or work appropriate. I may have to remedy that. 😎

It’s okay. It’s a black towel, and it gets washed on a regular basis, the period of which is classified.

You definitely need a “do not read while drinking” warning.
