On blue moons, between barstools and broken beds - I have moments where my beer-battered brain opens the cage, brave enough to let my own bluebird fly across a blank page.
My caged bird sings in tweets of pain, dragging my life-sentenced ball and chain across the telephone lined terrain of purgatories page.
Painting the space in hues of blue, birthed by ballpointed dissection of wing-clipped captivity, my bluebird bleeds out those soft, tender places within me, mocking the freedom I'll never know.
