I desperately long
to recapture that moment
between complete consciousness
and sleep
Floating into the realms
of all that might be possible
Yet able to control my
thoughts and feelings
In shades of the loveliest
grays
Hovering above myself
watching my vain attempts
to capture ..
elusive sleep

..safety?
She woke to the smell of cinnamon and syrup and coffee.
It came seeping in under the cracks of the carefully closed doors.
and windows.
They would need to be sealed.

this one's for you
a pebble
then a stone andnow a boulder
laid one upon the other
over time
stacked
into a barrier
cemented with determination
to protect
against the storms
of wind
and rain
and tides
and words
soon
nothing could cross
including
the
sun

"Shut up you're giving me a headache"
"Okay"
"Shut up you're giving me a headache"
"Okay"

almost
it was almost a thought
vague
lingering
lurking
on the
outer
edges
of complete consciousness
it was almost a feeling
dim
hoping
hiding
on the
outer edges
of complete realization
it was almost a reality
clear
distinct
palpable
on the
verge
of a beginning
or an ending

now i understand
Why are you doing that?!
What?
Look at that! Why are you doing that?!
It deserved it.
Why? Did it do something to you?
Yes.
Well, it's really small now. Was that what you wanted?
No. I wanted to understand.
Did making it smaller help you understand?
No.
You should stop then.
Don't tell me what to do.
Okay. But if you don't stop, won't it just keep getting smaller until it disappears?
Yes.
Will you understand then?
No, but you're missing the point.
If you wanted to understand and you aren't going to, there doesn't seem to be a point.
Yes there is. Doing this will make it understand and grow.
So you think it'll get so small that it'll disappear and then it'll grow? That doesn't make sense.
You're as stupid as it is.
Oh. Now I understand.
What?
Look at that! Why are you doing that?!
It deserved it.
Why? Did it do something to you?
Yes.
Well, it's really small now. Was that what you wanted?
No. I wanted to understand.
