Ode to My Purse - Joan R Brady

It is a soft, sack-like bag I carry...
always, forever, in close proximity 

necessary things
kept in expectation
of anticipated immediacy
that forever may happen
some time, some place
far from the familiar...

in wandering ways, explorations
always changing except
for what it is that is carried

so much never needed
but still there is a sense of
safety in knowing it is there

just in case...

just in case...
