Ball of Emotion

07 Mar 2008

·J. Maw

In layaway; in wait paralyzing every nerve halting every motion, super-stimulating every notion, deep into the ocean, a sphere of pulsing energy crashes against the shore . . . . . . . rocks smash . . . water breaks . . . and salty tears behind blue eyes . . . a ball of gloom lifts up, thrusts outward, a buoy of shining faithlessness . . . and hope . . . . . . . . and love. The fireworks burst unfelt.

I care not so much what I am to others as what I am to myself. Michel de Montaigne
