Enough Scrolling!

Enough Scrolling!

by Elizabeth Challinor

I scroll

Collecting truths

Like stamps

Palliatives for an aching soul

Addictions for a restless mind

Yearning

For certainty, closure

Searching

For a ledge to place my heavy head

And rest

From the never-ending turmoil

Of expectations

Today

I threw my stamp collection away

Pulled my lazy body

Up

And went out for a stroll
