A trip to the surgeon.
Month: December 2023
(Risk – Metric)
“Minotaur’s Cauldrin”

See it gathering the fire with its arms and claws?
“Gargoyles”

“Cyclops”

“Plumage”

(Aniron – Enya)
Once
“Don’t!” as she placed her flat palm on his chest to stop him from taking her into his arms and kissing her.
“But why?” He asked her, huskily.
“Because I love you so much, that if I can not have you, to feel it unreturned would tear me apart.”
YAAAAAAASSSSS!!! (Sleep Token Drums)
Weihnachts Mode On!
Paradigm Shift
Abruptly and forcefully ejected from a field of providing healing therapy, she transitioned into one that was personally and creatively rewarding.
Nightfall
When the sun fell down and her energy was withdrawn, she felt ashamed that she could not do it all.
Compassion
Recognizing validity of others’ needs, even if they are not your own.
And, recognizing your own needs are valid, even if others don’t.
The point is to be kind and supportive, externally and internally.
(Already Gone – Eagles)
Obsession
She realized that she must become her own.
Even Flow
“It seems as if nothing has changed since I last met you. We are older and perhaps somehow more wise, but it is as if how we were together was placed in stasis of a now-opened time capsule” she remarked upon their reuion.
“Chrysalis”

Clacking Gum
“I’m into a guy’s mind and the intelligence by which he applies his knowledge to expand upon the greatness of his powah,” stated the flippantly red hair-dyed, uneducated waitress with her hand on cocked hip and a cheeky smile.
Too Small Glasses
She liked wearing the minimal ones, uncaring as to whether or not they complimented her face.
She thought them a hilarious addition when in the lab, and chuckled to herself occasionally when she remembered she was wearing them.
For like a wild horse put to saddle, underneath her reserved exterior she resented having the need of their aid in order to fit into and conform to society.
“It’s The Final Brain Cell…”
Parody of song, “The Final Countdown.”
BWAH-HA-HA – Then What’s The Point Of That?!
“…the thing about twin flame union is that it never seems like anything is happening. What I mean is, there is no perceptible progress. You feel like you’re in limbo…”
The Raptor And The Gargoyle: Friendship
“My Sacrifice” by Creed
The Raptor And The Gargoyle – Reflections Upon Intimacy
“I have been taught to forget my own name and to forget that I love to fly as high as I can fly and I love to explore and create things of interest to me when I am with a mate,” she confided.
“I have also been taught that I can only give my warrior’s cry in silence, when I am alone – for others become as quail when they hear my voice’s power, and even my own children seem to fear me,” she lamented.
“My attempts to find a lifelong mate have failed because the males I have encountered are not driven to aspire like me. Even if I “dumb myself down” for them so they are not threatened, they then have felt superior and have mistreated and devalued me.” She shook her feathers agitatedly.
“It seems that to be truly myself, I must not seek a mate. For with one, I am neglected and lonely. If I am on my own, at least I get to keep who I am and have my freedom.
What is your story?” she queried. “Do gargoyles have much better luck in loving?”
Counseling Gaps
How do we process to completion the charge of unresolved feelings and emotions without imposing them upon one another?
The Long Haul
As she withdrew further from external societal interactions, she acknowledged that she was weary from being responsible for everything on her own, yet her children were now of an age where she began to have more freedom.
Introversion
She thought that perhaps if she retreated inward with accelerated velocity, she might come out in an entirely different direction with a refreshed perspective.
(Dear Agony – Breaking Benjamin ft. Lacey Sturm, Aurora Version)
Crystal Haze
On an evening frosting stars
Where the chill fog billows
It is difficult to see how far
The soul must still travel.
“Mid-December”

“Tea Leaf Wisdom”

Adjustments
It wasn’t a crime to care, but she needed to no longer give her energy where it was not equally reciprocated.
(Movie Peggy Sue Got Married – End Credits)
Intro-Spection
As a box suddenly shiftsd on the top bathroom shelf and other items threatened to join as she struggled to rebalance the front layer, the eye renewal cream box adjusted to where the model on its surface was looking around the center divider at her.
Flustered, she declared: “Quit looking at me with your eye-balls!”
Good Service
Some things are more important than the cheapest deals.
A Soul’s Haven
Neither bought, sold, nor
Crimped by constrictions
No more jockeying for
Any dominant position
Side-stepping struggles of
Competing remonstrations
Retreat into the woods as
Accomplished acquisition.
Turnabout
What I realized, finally, was that I hadn’t needed them. They had needed me.
“Elemental Groove”
“Dragonlet”

“The Hair, The Bat, And The Dragonlet”

“Majestic Pheasants”

To The Skies
With a rustle then surge of her powerful wings, she left behind trappings of commoners to search for her ideal’s prize.
(Fortress Around Your Heart – Sting)
“In Search Of…” TV Series With Leonard Nimoy (1977-1982)

In Search Of
With true friendships being so rare, she felt the need to have more people get to know her.
Neutral Territory
I do not want to date in my town.
“The Gathering”
(Between The Raindrops – Lifehouse ft. Natasha Bedingford)
Good Will
She enjoyed generating, fascilitating, reciprocating, and receiving.
Learning After 40
Pride’s Jury
What I do have that is MINE is my Integrity – and I do not take kindly to someone I have trusted causing injury!
