A Hug

Posted on March 19, 2015 by SHE'S IN PRISON

A Hug  I microwaved a mug of tea and cuddled with it on the couch, pulling my knees up, hugging their substance like I would a pillow or a lover.   I needed to feel the proximity of tangibility, something to hold  to funnel irrationalities into a moment of quiet— holding a mug of hot tea, holding the pieces of me together one knee at a time.

Sometimes all you need is a hug.
