Into the Blue
For months I’ve prepared,
Gorging myself on Helium
Till my smooth, rubbery skin
Stretched taught
Across my body
And bats fell from
The ceiling in fright
At the sound of my voice.
At last,
Chords cut,
Anchor unchained,
I float to the sky.
From the small patch
Of dirt where you scrabble,
Tearing skin and nails
In the hard, unyielding earth
You may see me
Rise upwards,
Caressed by clouds
And disappear into the blue.

Right so finally uploaded part of one of the two long overdue requests, hoping this will kick me into gear. In the meantime will also be posting now and again other stories I've written. Gauge response while finishing the two requests and also to revive my writing of Consequence which if ideas keep mashing together may become more filled out than I initially intended.
not happy with my writing on this end at all, still editing, till writing.
Just possibly too much of an emotional mess to be able to do it effectively without motivation...
Just always feel :(
I seem to be working my way back to writing somewhat. Seeing what happens. I am sorry for the delay on the two requests I've been working and I'm sorry for the delay in consequence and other works.
I've got a lot of my plate (mostly my brand of crazy) but I'm trying to bypass it.
Thank you for the watch, friend, and don't hesitate from commenting on my works; it'll do me a ton of good. I hope we may yet write many more interesting fictions!
