A paper being
Razors and claws, talons everywhereGrasping at my bare skin Tearing off my flesh with every new wordYour tongue like ice to a struggling fire like mine All around a blizzard sets inMaking my skin paler, more fragile, easier to draw the satisfying red from my veinsThis is what they want?

The Weight of Hollowness
Dark waves rolling, crashing endlessly, without end…A world within a world, within a universeand yet each front quiet, not a word to be heard.The vastness of the sea - rich and empty.
The shoreline empty, not another soul in sight.Never any other souls in sight.Always alone,even in places so filled with others, I do not appear to them,I do not exist.

MONDAY MUSINGS: DANCE LIKE NOBODY'S WATCHING!
Many a day, morning, night I would look out my bathroom window and see a male neighbor in his thirties dancing up a storm with no music that I could hear. Now you might say he had on earbuds but I don't think so.He looked just like this Aztec Dancer with his movements; his neck would elongate and move like that of a goose while doing some kinda 'duck walk' that would rival Chuck Berry.Then he ...
