Nights at the Museums
Stop.
Think.
Breathe.
The pictures.
The sculptures.
The history.
Turn around a corner
and look at George Washington's yellow teeth,
his lead gums bare.
Lady Obama's
Inaugural gown.
Dorothy's red ruby slippers
gleam in the spotlight.
Apollo Ohno's skates
with invisible wings on the side
propelling him,
faster, faster.
Kermit sits high
on his pedestal,
green skin breathing,
black eyes shining.
Picasso exhibits his
depression in blue.
Stop.
Think.
Breathe.
