Fresh

Sometimes, when I am fresh out of the shower I whisper to my reflection to hold her head higher. I play pretend like I used to when I was 10;  wearing different crowns covered in opulent gems. I sashay around my apartment wearing my robe like a designer gown, silk and the finest thread around. I re-read old magazines like they are the classics. I pretend that perfect weather is in the distance -  even as thunder booms overhead. Sometimes, when I am fresh out of the shower... My thoughts are free to wander and the problems of the day disappear... If only for a little while.
