Secret Chain

Soft and innocent
She draws you in
Smoothly pulling you
Out of your skin
Like a moth you go
And like a moth you burn
And like a man you hurt
And turn into stone
But close your eyes and carefully listen
To silent sounds and secret signs
Certainly as ever there’s a story
If you read between the lines
Neither a victim nor a villain
A soul [...]

Relief

Far far away from home, in a house that does not believe in birthdays, I decide to skip a year. I will not be 24 this year. I will not grow older this year.
And the day turns to dusk and dusk becomes night and the night shifts to dawn. And I am not older. [...]

Recap

October.
Fall.

Leaves. Plenty of leaves. Yellow leaves and red leaves and orange leaves.
Wind. Fresh cool breezy wind. I walk on Air.
Downtown stands and subway heat.
Random people walking, smiling and spreading peace.
Friends and laughs and giggles over early morning coffee and snacks.
Goodies.
Cinnamon. Banana pancakes. Blueberry waffles. Pure Hot Chocolate. More Coffee. More Cinnamon. Lots of Cinnamon. [...]

I Play Kitchen

As thoughts lay scattered inside my head – taking a short break from all the running and hiding and seeking – I stand right in the middle in blue baggy overalls and a green bell-shaped hat with my uncombed hair tied in a loose cluttered ponytail.

I tiptoe – barefoot – with a straw basket, [...]

Illusions, fiction, and reality…
I put them all in the blender. I push the ON button, and I watch them as they mix and mingle and dissolve. I watch the color of each fading as they form one unique shade of a strange familiar color. [...]

Reminiscing*

I remember your house. I remember the main street and the alley, the nearest supermarket, the old staircase and the balcony, the old wooden door, the dining table facing it, the cozy living room (which used to be a bedroom), your room, the guests’ room, the little bathroom, the bigger bathroom, and the kitchen. [...]

So here’s the tag:
The rules are, erase the answers already listed and fill in my own then pass it [...]

The Bends

It still feels weird…
After all this time I thought I’d get used to it, but it still feels weird…
I have my laptop on me, I want it higher and I try to reach with my feet to get the little pillow I can spot by the foot of the bed…
How is it possible that I [...]

Loose Thread Balls

The confused and confusing bulk of words are all trapped inside, entwined, tangled and scrambled in loose knots. If I were in one of my default states of nonchalance and tranquility, I probably would be able to untie each knot, take one line of thought at a time, analyze it, and leave it hanging in [...]

according to them!
