It has arrived The soothing droplets of rain tap rhythmically upon my window In the distance, the hoot of the owl creates an off beat,distorting the musical rift. And here I lay, trying to achieve my zen, attempting miserably to sleep. The musings of my brain have better ideas. A brief interlude whilst my bladderContinue reading “The bewitching hour- a ramble”

Months have passed
Months have passed since my last post The trajectory of my life seemingly not as I had envisioned. I am devoid of creative expression, intellectual stimulation, instead, running unwittingly on a perpetual wheel. Each evening I prepare the page of ‘to do’s’, listings, complete with neatly positioned tick boxes. The mundane, the routine, the lifeContinue reading “Months have passed”
She is firing on all cylinders
It is all seemingly disjointedIn this world of hormonal hellMy physical self buckling and the tears continue to cascadePooling within the deepening creases of my visage.Within, rages a torrent of disarrayA discord between who I am from nanosecond to nanosecondThe serenity replacement unrecognisable….

I wrote a while ago that I am the personification of the Grinch I was hoping through the passage of time that this would alter. That Grinch would dissipate and the replacement happy pants would appear, as if by magic. Unfortunately, I can report to you personally, that Grinch has not, I repeat NOT, exitedContinue reading “Grinch has not left the building, sorry”
