More poetic musings. ^^ Enjoy if you do. If not, well, not everyone's cuppa tea.
Text for those who can't read the file:
Character Therapy
Sometimes I feel like I’m acting but my performance is never good enough.
Always there is fear bluing my throat like the plumage of a mute evening.
Only a release in tension when their spirits come to me;
my Brainchildren, throngs of them rise out and up to meet me,
rising out and up with wings and crowns of the ooze,
covered like primordial monsters; delicately I wipe them clean with scarlet cloth like prenatal babes,
terribly delicate.
And in each bulbous and partly formed face I see myself and everyone I know,
cowering in the corners of rooms with shades drawn on their eyes like reluctant revenants,
all seeking solace in the faces of their own made-up angels and imaginary devils.
