Clyde
“Like Bonnie and Clyde – but where the terrible demise ending happened first, and now we must partner for having fun.
Or maybe it’s just another big illusion – another ‘hitchhiker’ putting me under its gun.”
The Accident
“At this point, I think I should name it, for it is surely a dominant character in my life now – albeit muchly unwanted.”
Finally
The pain backed off…
What Makes A Man
“Think he has the right to string a woman along without any enduring benefits to her?
Oh, that’s right.
Because she cared enough to open her heart to him – and then he thought that he could just take her for granted.”

The Great Escape
Don’t think about it
Identify the objects
Put on clothes
Tie up the hair
Turn on plants’ light
Grab stuff and leave
Without diverting
To tend animals
Without pausing
For conversation
Hold body in tight
Ignoring the pain
Screaming as you
Grab basic pain pills
And shamble quickly to
Rehab’s transportation
Squinting and flinching
As light sears into brain
Back To “Norms”
She had to get her body back into more neutral realignment.
Across Distance
She had wondered if she ought to sway with him to match his energy – and then startled when he broke the pattern to preserve his focus because he’d felt and gotten distracted by their synergy.
Summoning
As if he had her mesmerized by his voice under deep hypnosis, he asked her, “How are you going to help me?” in return, quietly, “
Suddenly, deep muscles long bound in corkscrew tight complexity surged in a responsive spasm, instinctively attempting to break free to reach out and prove her abilities to aid him.
Provider
He took her hand in the dream world and guuded her mind toward new ways to help ease and untangle the pain.
Voices In Dreams
“I don’t know what you’re saying,” as she shifted groggily, trying to sleep.
“I’m still cold and my hip’s displaced,” indicating they’d just have to wait
A Lion’s Heart
One had wanted a certain girlfriend
While one was about to get married
The other one didn’t care who he f-ed
As long as the conquests were varied
A close one eventually betrayed her
While passing one just wasn’t there
And then one captured her affection
Unafraid to go deep and meet there
What’s Been Sown
Caught up in your fractured symmetry
The beating of my heart plays timpany
And I expect no sympathy from
Anyone who does not know us
Two peas in a pod destined to deliver
No matter rules’ consequences broken
Given
One of the suitors approached her gently and asked her to re-engage with him.
“I can’t. I’m sorry,” she replied immediately.
“But how can you know that he’ll come back for you? Don’t you think that’s too big of a risk to take while you are left here alone without answers, just waiting?”
“I know, I know the wayt this can go – but I can’t do anything other than to do what I’m doing, now that he lives inside of me.”
My Love,
“Even if it hurts me, show me the way.”

I Need To Be Careful
“When I have stressed thoughts of needing to rehome my dogs, that’s when I know my mind is on the edge of breaking.”
I Had Hoped
“That once I had gotten my children fledged and successfully launched into their new lives that I would have something left to offer – instrad of these fried circuits.”

Another Word Of The Day: Fantasy
“A way to cope with and survive despite the hardships of reality…though these days, reality is pressing to crush me.”
Word of The Day: Remnant
“As in, what little bit was left of supporting a woman’s pride.
A heavy blow – if she’d allowed herself to care for the loss.”
The Last Remnant
She had pieced together the favored undergarment one last time, patching it here and there against its resistance under dwindling time’s pressure – to find the support wire completely bursting out through the once surrounding fabric in a final triumph of its determined rebellion just as she entered the pavillion.
Going Crazy
“Stuck within tangled branches.”
Disclosure, Part 2
“Oh, that’s right – you can’t walk!
My bad…”
Disclosure
“Will the real Athena please step forward?”
Feck!
“Hip trying to twist out of socket.”
What Remains
Once lands are nourished
And the day’s work is done
All that remains is to love
Living Myth
“We all are these stories, unfolding.
What will be yours in its glory?”
Thy Will Be Done, Kingdom Come
Love’s gears are moved back into motion
By guiding hands of souls crossing oceans

To Ends Of The World
“No…she’d always know what she’d had, before she lost it.”
(Like Fire – Mansionair)
The Mask
“Listen, you.
You don’t get anything without Him.”
Dear Elements That Be,
“Thank you for making space and granting me safe passage, supporting me through the entire process to have the best view and a chance to connect with him – even though my wolf became injured and I’m now back to modes of desperation.”
Dear Friend,
“Do I fit you?”
(Jericho – Sleep Token)
Tears
“Today’s tension migraine brought to you by…”
The Boon
Pain before then
On the way back
But not during
Given blessing
I Am Real
Yet phasing
Substantially
In-then-out of
Material reality
A Night’s Flying
She had brought her walking sticks, planning to keep head high and stature elegant – but in the rush to don final pieces and help get them all through the throngs to the ADA window, she’d forgotten them.
Yet, somehow, she found her legs were working in tandem as they carried her with careful, determined purpose, gliding and turning on heals as needed.
Her magic had arrived to support her.
Funny how when it was over, her body went back to being injured.
You Fit Me
This is it, the place where the tears flow
I guess that’s when one can know again
When you find someone who’s heartbeat
Takes you where you’d not choose to go
If knew what was good for your survival
Where the bodies of broken dreams rot
In shadows of past potentials’ haunting
Tormented by disillusionment of lovers
Too toxic to remember their humanity
And that we’re here to reclaim destiny
Shutting Down
“No,” she growled.
She knew she was vulnerable as he left.
She knew others would try to take advantage.
So she gifted him with her openness while she could, and then began reattaching her armor.
How Had He Done It?
He had slipped right past
Barriers long ago sealed
She knew it was her fault
Returning to glance again
Right when he also turned
And their eyes met openly
Passing Glances
Her voice grew dimmer
As he continued farther
Trying to tell him truth
While he could hear it
Not wanting to disrupt
His careful momentum
Unsure if he’d return
Tears flowimg silent
I’m Learning
“A lover must aim for another lover in order to find true happiness.”
Dear Friend,
This is what I want
Something between
Our hearts that is ours
No one may take away
Because our instincts
Remain pure-attuned
And if we falter we lift
Each other’s spirits up
Redefining vision of
Desired loving unity
Be my guiding believer
Be my daily adventure
For I am weak without
The strength you give
Grant me comfort in
Heat of your shelter
Without which I only
Dream of life to begin
I See
“Examples of good partnership more and more around me.”
Venue
They had been there
Had fed each other
Even distanced apart
They grew stronger
In My Life
“I keep the freak show talk to a careful minimum.”
