I wake at night:
Freeze.
Blood sluggish. Slow.
Mist, gray pulled like a veil across the eyes
Spiderwebs tangle limbs.
Bound.
Can't breathe.
Pain, bubble trapt. Rising from the gut. Choking.
Sound is muffled, echoed screams reverberate.
Pressure waves against the eardrums.
Crack.
They are gone.
Blood of my body excised.
Forever bleeding.
Cold.
Remember the reason:
Duty, not a burden, but a weight
Carried on the shoulders as Atlas might.
Barbs pierce skin,
Spear words slide through muscle and tissue,
Analysis crush bone.
Broken husks unmade with observations,
Are remade stronger, devoid of insidious weakness,
Dark skies at Night sing sweet hymns to strength everlasting.
To a lack of weakness.
To a shield against possibilities negative.
Valor and love heavy,
Like the Earth across my shoulders.


What am I fighting for:
Walls spring up
Mushrooms popping through the forest floor
Rooms filled with voices
None speak the language I most wish to hear
Faces move behind a veil of Vaseline
Seen but distant, vague and blunted
Mine but not familial
Familiar in theory
A key no longer fitting her lock
Where has the tumor grown
In me or them?
Close my eyes,
Whispers of the dead sing me lullabies
All I want to do is sing along.


XoxO:

Hey baby
Shake baby
Your pollen is a callin'
All the bees for miles aroun'
They see how you glisten
Petals flexin' in the sun
They catch wind o' your scent
And your way they fly
But if you'd only see me
Baby, I'd be your humble bumble
The sweetest little bee
Sting.
