Inspired by the Billy Collins poem, "Marginalia," about writing in the margins of books that you love, I write in the margins of a life that I love.

Spinning
I'm always spinning -- twirling until I find my mark or rather, that place where I am supposed to be. Where I want to be. If I spin, the world will move faster and I will be where I am supposed to be sooner. I know what they say: life will be over before you know it so you should appreciate your time now. But I want my time to change, I want to be a better than I am now. I know I can. My skirt billows about me -- green polka dots rippling -- and I think if I just keep this motion, something will give.

I found this image at JacqleenBleu's Etsy shop, which offers a myriad of mesmerizing and artistic photographic prints. They really are exquisite. Check it out!
