A Good Brushing It is very easy for the wind to brush me aside for I lack the weight of another's reason. I no longer can justify the needs of me without the accompaniment of tears that try to fill the deepness that is cut by the unseeing, unknowing of me. Consumed by aching thoughts that choose to cover the skin in a humidity ridden day, riding me to a point of disbelieving in the exposure and stumbling means of caring that has dispositioned me this way. Months from now, even days, will pass and I shall not remember who I was, writing making no sense to me then when rereading, as it will to some now. After all, it is only strung words sometimes hanging themselves out in the wind. Sometimes needing cured, other times a rain to fade them out. My makeup is running, the pit of me has an unnatural whole, unlike others it doesn't need healing; when the moment is gone it is gone...with no more afterthoughts, no more burials, no more blood letting. Just a shedding of words... an achievement in itself. Unlike the cancer I faced, lingered with and watched die, I choose not to linger in this wind of confusion that threatens to poison the very whole of me. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

A bit of our built-in self-defense. Else we would all go mad. e |
