Insensible

Do you see the turbulence behind my eyelids

Like ominous clouds concealed beneath

Pretty puffy wisps?



I was blinded by the struggles of today

And I didn’t see the unforgiving storms

In the distance.



The orchestra of comfort made me deaf

To the cacophony residing just outside

Windowed ears.  



My tongue was accustomed to insipid tastes

That when this feast of spices appeared

I was unprepared.
