He said, “I want to be there in the morning and with you in the night.”
She said, “Then why are you still far away, always out of my sight?”

Blurring
She has the audacity
To keep enduring
But trialed struggles
Keep burdening
By similar cycles
A life churning
Desperate to stop
Whirlwinds spinning
Her like a top
Until she drops
Disheartened
Full stop
Taking Root
“I must get grounded.”
Flying On A Falcon
Wisdom
“It has been implied by absence of much mention that the goddess Athena did not have a deep pair bond with anyone.
But perhaps she did, and just knew better than to share info about it with anyone.”
Emotions
“I’ve always believed that they can help us better understand ourselves.”
Interdependency
“Having to be independent has been continually reinforced, even in partnership, so it would be refreshing to do things better and differently in a loving relationship.”
Plan Z
“Because the rest of the alphabet imploded.”
(How Will I Know – Sam Smith)
Independence
“As a matter of survival and to be a good mother, it has been necessary. But now it seems highly overrated.”
A Warrior’s Creed
“What’s that they say, ‘Pride goeth before the fall-?’
My pride keeps getting trampled on because of the accident’s fall.
It’s not my fault.
I’m still here.
Trying.”
Sword And Shield
“Today I hit my limit.
I no longer want to swing the sword.
I want to support and have my partner’s back.
I want to be provided for.
I will still contribute and innovate.
But I no longer want to be out here, on my own.”
(The Summoning – Sleep Token)
“Raise me up again.
Take me past the edge.
I want to see the other side.”

Poverty
“There is no real immediate accountability required by agencies that make mistakes.
‘Give it time and the system will work itself out, they say.’
Sure!
If I have a monetary buffer to float you, this can work.
If not, you are just chopping apart my enture functionality!”
Fu**ery
“How is it that I am encountering more systems with new methods of gaslighting crazymaking in communications which seem specifically designed to target and further inflame my brain injury?!”

It’s Pretty Cute
“To see the three lined up, side-by-side, with a dog on each end eating a biscuit while the tiger is in the middle, playing with and drinking freshly-poured water.”
Resonant Hues
It was as if their hearts’ passions had been kindled by the same flame, resulting in the same aching soul hunger.
Objects Of Desire
When one in the throws of yearning
Speaks so eloquently of love desired
And another follows him on his path
Wishing he could see that he’s valued
A Modicum Of Silence
“Seems necessary to balance the internalized screaming.”
In Dependence
“Where independence is upheld as one of the highest virtues in the American way, it would sure seem logical to not keep increasing the difficulty to maintain this for so many of its citizens on limited income.”
(Night After Night – Fideles, CamelPhat Remix)
Agency Help
“‘Once in a lifetime’ phrasing somehow does not feel encouraging when one is still in a state of need and recovery.
It’s kind of like being swept onto a dustpan and then1 shaken off outside of the door to a house now closing as you land on your butt, unceremoniously.
Of course, I’m grateful…but also extremely embarrassed.”

Kindred Instinct
At the gathering, she recognized a few had traveled from farther away than was usual.
They ranged around her at distance, nonchalantly mingling with the other visitors naturally – separate, yet together.
It was their behavior that was similar in how they looked at her at different times, and then communicated directly to one who was their leader.
She could sense intention pass between them, as if her ears were selective antennae able to pick up on their rare frequencies discussing their impressions of her.
She couldn’t hear what they conveyed, but their signals seemed generally excited and positive, though wary.
And their shared energetic scent signatures underlying individual character roused the queen in her, causing her blood to quicken.
A younger female approached her early on, asking a polite and friendly question – and she was playfully responsive, dropping her guard while inclusive.
For the attractive males, however, their strong energy caused her leadership instinct to kick in, making her walk around straight-legged with tail puffed, displaying that she was no submissive to be dismissed nor taken advantage of.
Phermones of dominance poured from her in waves as self protective response to their presence, and instead of allowing herself to feel intimidated, she found herself rising to the occasion.
Her body had never reacted this way before, so internally she was flustered where her normal behavior was to blend – yet her instinct had been to show her strength’s worth to gain their approval.

“Only a wise man would not fear to approach it – yet still, it can be learned.”
Sigma B.S.
“While it is fun to get some side reinforcement where I identify with some of the characteristics, I feel like biting back and saying, ‘how dare you attempt to pigeonhole me!’ – which would likely be seen as Sigma, but much else is just too rigid and thus does not apply to me.”
The Arc
“It has come to my attention that true love does not always come in the form society expects and demands it to be.
And if such is the case, it is dependent upon intention to be successful.”
Congruency
Our paradigm is shifting rapidly
Past the ignorance of violence
Past outdated modes of fear
And ever restless tyrannies
Elden Ways are filtering
Streaming into this realm
As if the others left behind have
Found cause to support humanity
Our species share bloodlines
From past alliance marriages
It only makes sense that all rally
To ensure parallels may coincide

“And rain begins to fall gently, slowly, filling the air with its fresh greenery and the scent of wet pavement.”

Dear Alex,
Exerpt from removed reference to signs and omens:
“And as I stop to investigate the room inside, it feels closer to my world now than it’s ever been – as if crowding full to burst out of me.
And I sense traces of you all over the scene, as if you’ve been there recently.
And the room is no longer dark and isolated, like in once deep, catacombed caverns.
It is a room with a window, and there is sunlight gently streaming.
And as I ask myself who it could be, I find myself breaking down crying.
All I can say clearly is that this man who has been walking along beside me, caring for me through everything, is a Master of Dreams.”
Creaking Woodwork
“Before I woke up, I was walking on a stage.
A last missed piece to reclaiming my puzzle.
It would be so easy to just slip my hand into that glove again, under right circumstances.
Will I ever step upon one with legs stable?”

Jasmine Tea
I think I’ve avoided drinking it
Although bought tin canisters
Because one I once loved
Claimed it as his favorite
I remember at our beginning
Motorcycle rides to freedom
Flying like hawks in the wind
Naturally gliding glued to him
Perfection’s bliss in our kiss and
Hope’s rebirth in a life together
But innocence fades quickly
When fear grabs and blinds
One who once gave trust
Leaving the other behind
Forever alone in shadows
Clinging to lost memories
Yet this flowered cloying tea
Gives happiness nonetheless
Even if initially I must address
Associations filled with regret
Holding a cup’s heat in hands
Sipping warm sense of home
As I try to define from past
What I can still call my own
Hind Brain
Stop twitching
Recallibrate
Reality Bites
My job is to innovate
Dead ends if I can’t

Nocturnal Delights
“For the last few nights, I’ve played one song over and over while working on getting my body able to dance again and gathering costume elements for a future event – as if I will be attending a glorious celebration ball.”
