Glasses

Twice

in the past week

I have gone to sleep with

my glasses on

I wake up in bed

Take off my glasses

and go back to sleep

In the dark morning

Glasses - gone!

Panic

I AM my glasses

My glasses are ME

The first time

finding them was easy

Although they were on the carpet

Way too in the open

for safety

This dark early morning

They were simply

Gone

Nowhere

One lamp on - 

searching searching

why do I keep so many things

near my bed?

How will I drive to work

without my glasses?

Where the hell can they BE?

Move a this.

Check under a that.

Nope. Nope. Nope.

Well, at least some spots in this room are cleaner now.

Check that purse.

And that one.

And to my right - 

on top of things already moved

There sits the beauty of sight

Safe. Unbroken. Found.

Life is less mysterious 

again.

Back to the used-to

real/not real perspective.

On to an again-normal day.
