The sky is dark again. Time to embark then on another quest to find some peace in my mind and some sleep on a short wind.                Up the eyelids stay until my muscles decide it’s time to pay the price of admission to dreamland, leaving my lids with nothing to hold them open, they fall and crash as my concentration begins to find some meaning in another day.                Folkways and mores left behind— people standing backwards in elevators— making me question, reality? My thoughts slow down only to find unicorns eating popcorn; green monsters lacking jealousy—           Unwinding down a spiral staircase to a door with a sign saying here, and another with a sign saying there.          Mind neither here nor there but caught at a “Y” in the road. Pick one? I fight back and forth with myself until I slip into here.

Here or There
