Everyday Canvas

This Saturday

Have fun with these words: temperament, determination, sensation, fleeting, energetic, Saturday, and beyond.

---*

this *Saturday, the world
is *fleeting away
so I chase a *sensation
*beyond my reach
with *determination flimsy,
*temperament flaccid, yet,
if I can be candid,
within each breath,
a spark of will
endures still, *energetic
and seeking pure elation
making me pick my pen
to write a letter to
myself -- to stop the world
from fleeting, this Saturday
