Purpose
-
See Nothing
When I See Nothing ~ I don’t like what I see ~ All that is left are feelings.
-
Feeling the Feels
Feelings are foreign to me; at least feelings over which I don’t have some sort of control.
-
the poet’s irony
I try to write of love ~ but words ne’er flow
-
Needful Things
we tell our kids – needs come first ~ but want calls oh so loudly
-
fire and ice
spark to flame / kindled calefacation / solid ice to slogging slush.
-
Correlation?
graphs mean nothing now.
-
armored
That suit gets heavy, you know.
-
Sleeper, Awake.
I am currently calling us “Awake Ben” and “Sleeping Ben”, which (because I’m so clever, you know) works on a number of levels, both literally and figuratively.
-
defying atrophy
look back at writings / thoughts of yore / and wonder where my / mind went.
-
Breathing; space.
Working through mental illness is not about being clever. ~ In fact, it’s the opposite of clever. Sometimes you have to stop thinking in order to ever think clearly again.
-
publish or perish
there – my life in a nutshell.
-
should be sleeping
though I really should be sleeping ~ leaking mind just keeps on seeping
-
poison ivy
stepping in the poison ivy / i only felt the cool of green / it wasn’t ’til much later / that I felt its bite – so mean.
-
-
mountaintop moments
from the foothills of the ~ or the deepest valley ~ the icy peaks seem… ~ romantic.
-
wonderland
a nice place to visit…
-
lighthouse
Darkness – Not a thing ~ Merely an absence of light ~ Shine more brightly, friends.
