Just when..

Just when it seems
all to be over...
things begin to .
gather momentum.
I have shed so many
garbs and stripped
to the bone
vowing never to put on
paint or flesh,
and then life tempts
me 
with a new offering
to play a part.
And I think, oh, 
life is just another play
and we are here
to play our parts.
The arc lights lure me
back on stage
and I am now past that
stage.
I want my quiet corner
with nothing to bother
no one to relate and berate
just to be my self 
and then it starts all over
again.
Care, warmth and affection
are the undoing of the self.
So be it.
