Too lazy to decipher scrawl,
she took to typing.
But graphite gratified,
thunderbolts struck her empty.
Nostalgic for
the soothing scratch of pencil
as a child cloistered,
shuffled between states,
who translated her life
to pass the days.
Writing then vs. writing now.

An aura of every color.

Mystifying.

Yet, you sheathe it.
One color at a time, never in full spectrum.

Evolution.
Adaptation.

Concepts which don't seem to apply to me.
Some things never change.

I don't care if nothing ever changes.

I'll keep writing.
It's the only option.

Close one door,
open another,
and....

...back where I started.
The circle will become a line, in due time.

"Play your cards right."

If only you'd stop shuffling them.
Just deal me a new hand.
Helseivich May 2014
What I learned by the end of it...
...was nothing.
18 years down the drain.
