ODE to my YOGA MAT

poem by Malcolm McLean ©2021

Magic carpet

Mystery ride

To continents listed

Only inside:

Take me on this journey

This ancient sacred path

Of those who seek to lose

Some Thing

They never really had,

Like ego and…

Damn.

That asshole stepped on my mat!

I love this poem, especially because of the twist at the end, where the author is ‘brought back down to earth’. It is a lovely surprise.
