I settle into daily life
after sick-on-vacation strife;
relax into comfortable 
routines that enable
me to focus on breath
and no longer feel like death
warmed over. A few days
filled with stormy haze.
Time to do post-trip laundry
among the all-and-sundry
things I have on my list
before I pack my bags amidst
preparations for the next trip.
Let ‘er rip!
