Learning to Live

A boiled teabag,

a pruned raisin,

soaking in water

up to my chin.

Lyrics drifting,

smoke swirling,

a lit joint,

I am learning. 

A steamy serenity,

a cup of earl grey,

all the stress

kept at bay. 

Try not to sleep

while you soak

or the comfy bath

may be where you croak.
