Wrap me in the familiar
Speak to me in the past tense
Don’t stoke the dying embers
Let me shiver in the bitter chill
No need to cushion the walls
Lock me in dogmatic confinement . . .

Late for the flight,
Back breaking baggage in tow
Lost in a maze of surging steel
Slippery tile, swarming hordes
Late for the flight,
Arms ache from hauling luggage
Stuffed . . .

Chilled sterile air
Gagging tongue guard
Welcome gas mask
They tell me I'll forget
Static winds blow
Electricity sparks
Jolts my foundation
They told . . .

Bone crushing rage
Snaps my brittle skull
Soul squeezing hands
Drain blood from my spirit
Touched by the devil’s fingers
Guilty palms cannot pray
Temporal time ticks . . .

She runs naked through the forest
Her hair twisted in wisteria knots
Body caked with muddy sweat
Her face frenzied, eyes . . .

The alarm resounds
with incessant rings
that deafen muffled ears
filled with wax from unkempt sleep
In a blurry-eyed haze,
I hurl the clock against crumbling walls
cracked with maps of deception . . .

Winter’s icy fingers
Tickle me this summer morn
‘Til my feet grow numb with frostbite
I freeze under an avalanche of blizzard tears
Mourning for the loss of perspective

I'll be chronicling what's been going on during my absence from Gather. Currently, I'm coming down from a psychotic manic state. I don't want pity; I don't need sanction. . . .

The event horizon pulls me inexorably closer
Crushed by gravity, denied my time
I'm swallowed by a universal myth
My light dims
My space dissolves
My soul disintegrates

Dark roots nest in platinum blond
Mascara runs from shadowed blue
Bubblegum lips billow with embarrassment
Foundation drips down blushed complexion
She sits for the masses
Still life . . .

Helium reason suspended mid air
Floats beyond my reach
Insight trampled in confusion
Leaves ink blot stains on cold tile
Dressed in the depths of despair
Cloaked in confinement
Naked . . .

Dancing to a ghostly echo
Eloping with a memory
Sharing secrets with shadows
Outstanding debts of spirit
Languid, emotional IOUs
Antiques whisper scents of yesteryear
Today’s embers . . .

A cataract of tears blurs my vision
A weeping willow drips upon my sheltered veins
A rip tide swallows my sodden spirit
A keening wind mourns the death of my soul.
The waterfall cleanses my . . .

I'm tracing the map in the cracks of my ceiling, trying to find my way home. Back to a world that was small and green, scented with lavender breeze and freshly mowed grass. Now it reeks of illness . . .
