Maslow’s Stress Check Test
“I find it darkly hilarious that they are still using these things – when clearly, we all have enough trauma by now to bomb it.”
Three Days
“Of pushing without workout recallibration’s release…
I think that I’ve shown great reserve up to this point under tremendous pressure.”
“Red Rain”
I’m Worth It
Black Death
Tanked
“As good food finally hits my system, my guardian dragon eases, and fatigue sets in.
It is interesting to feel her curling up for slumber, one red-gold glowing eye cracked to keep vigil as she waits for me to join her.”
(In Your Gaze – Innergaze)
Taking Care
“There is no doubt now that I have needed to rest and recover.”
“Boo-Ta Boo Boo…” (Lost Disco Thrills – Eyeto8 ft. Frouin Tom)

God Of Smoke And Fire
“I saw him again just now, in the rain washed sky.
Sideling left as watching me with his blazing eve sun’s eye – though his coat was now cleaned blue-gray and perfectly white-fluffy.
He was angry and in heat from summer forest fires the day of my car accident, wanting to consume everything and anything in his rage.
I guess that he did not expect me to stand up to his destruction and hold my ground, even though fragments of my molecules were launched into another system upon impact.
It’s on magic that such God-like beings feed – which is why when the blazing trees summoned him, he was so frustrated upon finding barely any released.
And now, he’s had a taste of me.”
(Romance · Varials)
It Wasn’t Rage
So much as the gathering nebulaic mass of powerful black wrath, ready to unleash in last defense of the woman’s fragile position.
Black Dragon
She rose up from within today, no longer allowing any access to her chosen human.
You Know My Desire
No more criticisms thrown at me
Or chinking my armor abruptly
If you cannot respect me
Do not wait at my harbor
Silence is much better
Than beligerant malice
I will take to the high seas
Over any polished palace
(Past Self – Sleep Token)
Dearest,
I guess that I needed to get my family to safety before I could be free to be me.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Prospective Relief
“To no longer carry all of the household bills for a 3-bedroom family house on my own.
My own creaking timbers need load relief!”
The Swing
Between stiffened pain in moving
And smooth public appearances
The Unit
“Is about the size of my bedroom.”
My Baby,
In the background of my mind through all of this stress of dismantling keeps playing one of your origin cover songs, soothing.
Overload The System
I Dreamed I Met Tom Hanks
“And was able to give him a deeply warm hug and thank him for being literally a guiding ‘star’ for love of humanity wave runner, reflecting versions of The Good Path before me so that I could better see.”
A Brief Reprieve
“I’ve been granted a few more days to clear out the hull of my life-to-this-point’s ship-turned-wreckage.
She creaks and groans sometimes as the waves toss her bobbing, waterlogged, and unevenly canting, weighted bulk as the load lightens.
Soon, she will be repaired and given over to more dablooned and able captains, i am told.
‘You’ve been a steady sea dragon, my steed…
I wish you stong, capable hands for sailing.”

Sing Me To Sleep

It was easier when I had someone
No vision expanded came undone
Even if the truth was a lie,
False confidence provided
Bread-Kins
Never Forget

Early Conversations:
Breakfast Of Champs
“Gluten’free too salt-buttery Ritz(TM)-type crackers and past expiration date rice pudding…
Still tastes viable.”

We Were Taught To
Meet aggression with aggression
But it is time for a new game plan
Simplifying
“Where I am going, if I can get the funding for it, is much less space – but bigger than a tiny home.
Well…
“I thought it was funny…
For a moment…”
“April Fool’s!”
“You’re not losing your housing!”
Reality
My Love,
I went to a show tonight, and though I know that it must have been good, I could not feel a thing without you there.
Maybe I am just tired from recent toils.
Or maybe I am exhausted by going through the trials of life with you still not beside me.
