Saved By Vinyl, In A Paper Sleeve
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. My mother, went undiagnosed with Bi-polar disorder for most of my formable years. So, we learned quickly, the boundaries and skills, necessary to survive the eggshell steps. Tiptoeing and dodging the triggers previously discovered. Storing this data in our command modules, for future reference. We knew, practice made perfect, so we became experts at aborting missions that might put the hopes of a good day, at risk of failure. Like astronauts, we called on the powers of anti-gravity to help us maneuver the known obstacles and keyholes necessary to prevent, screw the pooch, glitches.

My Imagination
Stripp ing down to my socks, in an old faded tee, or a worn sweatshirt, straight out of the dryer. Snuggled deep into my chair, the one oversized, writing down words I like to use, to get inspired. Fitted carefully, into some story or a poem I have in mind, disappearing, while never leaving the house. Into worlds that lay in wait for me, to stumble right on in, like some trap left out, for a wandering mouse. Some music turned down low, and the window cracked a bit, gets those juices flowing, like a waterfall. Until I'm totally submerged, into a tale about to happen, with the plot foreboding, waiting to unfold. Oh, the mysteries and joy that come from letters on a page, the places we will go, yet to be seen. But, one thing I know for sure, it's gonna be a crazy ride, to get it finished, so that someone else can read.
