Anything
“Please, just give me any position of comfort.
Anything…”
Darling,
“Is it really you, or am I going mad?”
Dear Friend,
No matter how we feel
We’ve got a taste for one another
And a few good years to kill
No matter what is real
It seems that even in Arcadia
You walk beside me still
—-
(Sleep Token lyrics from “Even In Arcadia”)
Dig Down Into The Mud
What good is all this talk of wings
When there is nothing left above?

(Sleep Token lyrics from “Even In Arcadia”)
Cliff’s Edge
“It seems that I have come to the end of what I can due to bring in income, unless I deviate course drastically and have ability to wait for several months – if not longer.
What purpose to be driven to this precipice with only options as denial or acceptance?”
Constants
“By observing patterns and my own responses, I learn, at least, about coping mechanisms – and about the aspects of myself struggling to gain room for their freedom of expression.”
Misaligned
Cranial bones are shifted.
I Want Out!
Seizes mappings of pain patterns to continue exerting will into reshaping one’s own destiny.
Find Better Ways
“Terrorizing a person into seeking how to just live in each moment is an outdated and wasteful way to treat a human’s decency.”
(Close Your Eyes – Future Of Forestry)
(Close Your Eyes – Forester, Petit Biscuit & Emilia Ali)
Self Regulation
“Gets hard to create when the nerve and chord twist-compress into hot, pinching pain and the panic sets in.”
Tech Support
Shenanigans
Frost Flowers
Today’s Yoga Pose
Honestly
“Writing my progressions for all of these years is likely how I’ve reinforced keeping connection with any traces of my sanity.”
Dear Friend,
“I pull at the chains…and I’m breaking.”
“Baby Onesie”
Great Measures
“Focusing on the rare warmed up pie and ice cream with whipped cream that I’m eating…”
Affectation
“Cussing gives me strength in times of weakness…power words…”
I’m Here
“Just casting my net about, trying to grapple with this sea monster and come up with better solutions than freaking the fu** out…”
“Golden Dragon”
“BZZT!”
“Messenger”
Movie Yet To See Spoiler: Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
Retraining
“Looms on the horizon…”
Dear Friend,
“I find it to be unfair that we have both in the past felt compelled to censor ourselves in order to retain what meager rations hinting at the faintest specks of love that we were portioned.
Yet, our endurance and fortitude against great challenges where weaker wills would have perished speaks well of us – and it is to be hoped that we have now deserved to receive much better treatments.”
(Silence Must Be Heard – Enigma)
Forgiveness
“A true lover will forgive almost anything.
But, I’m not sure that we should.
And some things must be remembered and put as hard limits – lest we be repeatedly misused and taken advantage of.”
Repetition
“Citing no-go’s keeps me from seeking false shelter.”
(Numb – Elderbrook, Chill Mix)
Striking Out
She had given them chances aplenty, but abandonment was always a dealbreaker.
(Missing Limbs – Sleep Token)
Severed limbs
She had been there for him through his worst times, but when his crazymaking and her longterm starvation for his love converged into a sickening slew, he abandoned her – later stating that he could not carry any weight to be there for her.
Marriage Vows
“In sickness and in health.”
Self Worth
“I felt proud of my prior physical abilities.”
(Fear – Leo Faulkner)
Troubleshooting
“Heating blanket controller says ‘E,’ so check for loose connection.
Attachment completely unplugged is definitely an ‘E’ reason.”
Pain
“Believe it or not, I don’t like complaining – but I keep getting driven to mention it in order to attempt to obtain some sort of psychological release.”
Dear Alex,
“It seems silly to say this, but at least I know it wasn’t my fault that when I’d literally lift a finger, my eyes and brain kept trying to short out.
This is why I could not continue attempting piano and guitar, and why the pressure of survival pinging would not release to let me return to prior editing.
I’ve been having a hard time not getting a complex about these inabilities.”
Dear Alex,
“I’m frightened.
The MRI shows I likely need intervention surgery, asap.
I find out more tomorrow.
It isn’t something that I can fix on my own, and is getting worse too rapidly.
I wish I was wrong about this.
I hope it is better than this.
But it seems pretty obvious my life is at risk.
Maybe there’s another way to interpret this.
I’ve worked hard to keep my grip from slipping.
I don’t know how I can control this fall.”
Dear Alex,
“Many forms you present, but whichΒ is the real you?”
“Spirit”
True Dat
Ah, If Only Could’ve
