Each day is given to me. I take it, the meds smooth it, the collision impact tween car and life, a different kind of hangover, is "written off," through irony delicious, by writing. it is not strange, it is not unusual, that clarity obtained, afforded, by the unexpected. I am stained, a stained glass window, the early light coming through, illuminated and repairs, enlightens and softens, renews, both me and the floor's cold stone slabs, where my knees touch the ground, confirm to me I am well, alive. I do not run. there is no compulsion, no need, for the direction is clearer now, the signs point forward, this way, exit the roundabout smoothly, on my way to my centre. Words i wrote in a way that someone majestically rewrote for Me - such a pleasure
