restless sweaty shiverings quickly let me grab the pen lick the fuzz from off my teeth and wake, the dog is licking me comfort? or the salt of skin? panic-eyes and jittering my feet itch to feel the ground and I recognize the walls I sweat some more in pure relief-- then I recognize the walls-- I gasp in gills of pure despair-- knowing I can't pardon me. "Mom?" A glass of water--love-- when did we change place? Shame, oh shame, of life arranged in such perversity... |

Gawd, Karen...I felt the confusion... the sheer panic of the moment. Thank you for showing me... Love you, lady..  "My friends are my estate." |
