(i wrote this at work but could not post it for some reason. here it is now.)

my head is a jumble of stuff today & i can�t get a handle on any of it. random thoughts keep darting across my consciousness like speeding cars on the highway. i keep bouncing between joyful calm, blind panic & gut-dropping loneliness with no real reason for any of it. i don�t know why these moods show up like this. it feels like getting mugged in a cornfield.

i wonder if i�m picking up on something that i just can�t see yet. wonder if this is what a deer feels like just before the puma lunges. that silent moment before it becomes fight-or-flight & a million years of evolution reduce to a split-second of possibility. wonder if this is what Adam tastes just before biting the apple; that taste of new growth & ozone, the sky just before the lighting strikes.

i can�t put any of this together today.
tonight i will sit with my paints & try to work words with a brushstroke.

more later.
be well.

You are a dark writer. A fierce and loyal follower
of Poe and the other gothic authors, you LOVE
to instill a sense of revulsion and somewhat
fear in your readers. You love to poke their
brains with logic dealing with the darker side
of the human mind and character. Truly
surprising and a true individual, you'll do
ANYTHING to create a scene. :)
