Insight
There are quite a few questions, a platter of quirks and plagues, that worm through my brain. But, I feel I am learning. I feel a gain in knowledge. An increase in folds. Because I'm thinking. Over and over and over and over. Pushing and trying, over and over. When my eyes close, I only …
One Word
A transformation is happening. The spaces between are fragile. Fatigue and muck cuts a diabolical combo. There's always a balance. Always a change. Not a crack. A clean split. Smooth.A line is drawn either way. And, what is left at the absolute bottom?A core remains at every ending. For me, that's---
Perspective
There's a lot. There's always plenty.Who am I? What am I? Anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar---so many things. But, through all that, I am still a....Writer.
Black and White

Having a Bad Day
Of course--honestly, he should have seen it coming--the date didn't turn out well. The list of things Adrian could scream from the mountain of why this date was, yet again, a failure...There was a lot. Adrian held each one close because he'd never been one for confidence. It was a folly of his life. But, …
The Hard Part
Frustrated. Hungry. Annoyed. Hopeful. Regretful. Grateful. Scared. Driven. Lost. Stubborn. Doubtful. No matter what I'll keep moving forward. I'm not happy with my production, or my writing. But, it's not a bad thing. At least, not this time. This time it serves to only make me fight harder. I may not have the confidence to …
