Scream. Bellowing with all my might.
Energise. Filling the air with fiery intensity from my lungs.
Navigate. Sailing endless oceans, void of any land in sight.
Savor. Inhaling the scent of charred remnants, reduced to ash.
Emit. Releasing a poisonous flavor, forsaking tranquillity, forever cursed.

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. Since the World Wide Web became established in the 1990s, this has become a lot easier to do. 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.
