I think the trees are walking, their gnarled roots groaning like the oldest of bones, their branches puncturing the sky. Just outside minding my own business when a thick slime started falling from the sky in staggered increments. The sense of surreal normalcy is still hanging over me. At any moment I expect the walls to peel away and reveal a vast ocean of space. The illusion that illusion can be transcendent  .

i loved your crooked sleep beside me and never dreamed afraid.

There should be stats for great wars like ours.

Been Away (i am here now)

i struggle the most when I ignore the whisper of my soul.
resulting in my cold logical mind. Colorless who then..
leAds Me down a patH that makes mE feel lost, Restless & confusEd.
takes a toll.
until I realize its time to mend..
standing Naked like the trees with nO leaves in mid Winter
i am frost, breathless & abused.
don't ignore what your soul is whispering to you.
