Dutiful Work Shrine

This morning brings
The need to reinvent
My mind creates
Wonderful decorations
For all I have
For all I am is a place
To hang beautiful things
Yet as a human in form
I create myself as cool brown
Creamy beige and my eyes
Cannot decide what color to reflect
Even with all the power of
Morning's full light range
I cannot stop shifting and adjusting
To meet the need of the day
Or my shifting thoughts
Once landing for a moment
Are thankful for my shelter
Yet yearn for the next location
Away from the dutiful shrine
Of this little work town.
