Here...
I don't like it
Here...
For too long I've been
Here...
I don't want to be
Here...
I can't stand it
and neither can I sit through it
Here...
I just can't be
Here...
Anywhere, please
just as long as it's not
Here...
From one temporary escape to the next,
I move
I don't care where, really
just not
Here...
Not anymore
I just can't be
Here...
If I can just be somewhere
other than wherever it is that I am now...
anywhere, as long as it's not
Here...

Do you understand haiku?
Do you ever get sidetracked when writing? I do. I think it must be in the nature of the creative mind to draw connections and have a need to explore them.

The phenomenon being described as ‘going down a wormhole.’ Sometimes a distraction, but I have written some of my best work when I have disappeared down one web wormhole or another. It also happened in the days when most of my research was book based so we can't blame it on the internet. Book research was just slower. These days, guided by my AI friend, it is much, much quicker.
