I’ll take a Venti Medicine Ball,
Make sure to give me
2 agave syrups, 3 honeys,
let that sit in the hot water—
half filled—with a Defense Up,
Comfort, and a Jade Citrus Mint tea.
Steam my grande Lemonade to
164 degrees, I need to feel something.
Pour into the cup, rotate 8 times clockwise
on the countertop in miniature circles.
Let gravity and force blend.
This is my ritual in a cup.
A positive message I take
into myself so that I can
move forward. I must keep
my defense up, find comfort
in conversations with God, and
overcome being jaded.
That’s what the Honey is for
It’s just the getting back to you factor.
That’s the hard part now.
