Awareness becomes acute,
shadows fall into darkness,
eyes transition, dilating to scoop up day's
fading light, a tingling of verboden awareness.

Heart rate increases...

The hearing filters the white silent noise
probes record temperatures change
while a moon's waning prepares our body
defenses for the new evening waiting.

Adjusting to the black and white...

The shift when smells registering locations
as we walk along levies and back streets.
A chill of anticipation prevails in the darkness
uneasiness with a sudden changing wind.

A tactile sensitivity slams our senses...

Withdrawing into our second nature as
night falls upon the day. Animal instinct
replace our norm to guide the human animal
safely on it's way.

i just want the road to feel real again
i want to feel the cold of the snow and weep
i want to sob, hard
and reattach.

even if i feel good all ******* day
and am determined to be happy
i end up crying when everyone is gone
and i can sit and remember things that taint my mind like venom
things like separation
and apart
and family
and mommy
and daddy
and little sister
and home
and please
and cutting
and help me

and then i am crying
again
like i always do
even if i just had
the best night of my life
anything could happen
and i would still cry

this halloween
i am a clown with a tear on her cheek
