This was a piece I did specifically for the purpose of being done aloud. I performed it at a few open-mics when I was still up at UNI. The rythm's not spelled out but try to drink in the alliteration and assonance should you decide to give it a read.

This is based off of a real experience I had when I was trying to relax and meditate to clear my head, but I was being distracted, so I tried to muscle through the cloudiness adn press through to serenity. Never try to do this. This will will break your mind for a little while and it will have to re-mold itself. But you just have to relax until it ends and try to remember the ride you went on for future reference.

A tip: if you experience this, remember to politely ask the dragon for your eyes back, and he'll let you see again.
