I have an image in my head
As unlikely as that may be
Of a Spike in love with Jelly
Splitting it at the seams
But the Jelly doesn’t mind
As the Spike rusts and chips
There’s always room to be made
And loves the Spike to bits
I see that image
Even in my dreams
It looks like me and you
And it makes me want to scream

And it makes me want to scream
I have aphantasia, which is an interesting obstacle for a writer, but on occasion, i am gifted with a crystal clear image. but it's not a gift this time!!! i love my partner dearly, but my brain is a rude and feral thing.
