I Laid on the Rocks and Looked at the Clouds

I laid on the rocks and looked at the clouds.
Of course, It only took me all day to get - to the rocks.
But if you want the truth, it only took me all month. 

I laid on the rocks and looked at the clouds. 

The clouds responded with the same drunken light that stole me from my schoolwork as a kid. I let myself be swallowed by this light...rain...as the crickets groaned, "The rain is here! The rain is here!" I was wrong... they didn't "groan" they chirped.

As-a-matter-of-fact, the rocks were the ones groaning, as I imposed on them my weight. "She's letting us hold her! She's letting us hold her!" They chirped. 

Humph. 

Again, not a groan. 

Clouds and rocks and crickets were not groaning as I gave up on my fear. [Fear of being held by what I love]


How very strange

Blankly and a Grin

    

  Staring blankly out the window before my desk - not unusually blankly, (because it's not that unusual for me to be blankly), but definitely blankly blankly. The kind of blankly where you might recall being a certain many years old and a certain many inches high, but you don't know how many - specifically. You're also certain you have done many interesting things over the course of those many certain years - and with great purpose, but the reason for the purpose is forgotten, and also, what the many "interesting things" were - exactly.

  Staring blankly out the window in front of me, I observe evidence that I have in fact been busy, because of what is grossly spread behind me. Notes taped over the entirety of the wall, stacks of real books and note books on every available surface. Colored pens, pastels, paint brushes strewn, jewelry weaving projects in a half finished mess on the antique tray near my closet, piles of clothes - approximately three of them - in various positions on the bed, carefully heaped on the floor, and thrown with great intention to 'put-away' across the back of the chair that isn't meant for that.

  My blank stare softens into a grin. I'm not sure what I've been doing, but at least it looks worthwhile. If someone - anyone walked in on this, they would likely have some questions. I wouldn't have answers by the way. But I would invite them to stare out the window with me.

Watching What I Think

Her lips are covered in beet juice again and her eyes have turned to green. But don't worry about the hearts slipping out the top of her head... 

That's pretty normal this time of year. 

Sweet Big Tiger

Sweet Big Tiger with your sweet big toes and your tricksy big tiger tail. Savage like you're supposed to be savage, and passionate like you're supposed to be passionate, and powerful like all the best. But who gave you those rabbit paws Sweet Big Tiger?

Fierce Little Rabbit

FIERCE LITTLE RABBIT with your fierce little rabbit ears and your swift little rabbit eyes. Soft like you're supposed to be soft, and bouncy like you're supposed to be bouncy, and loveable like all the best. But who gave you those tiger claws Fierce Little Rabbit? Who gave you that tiger growl, fierce little, cuddly little, lovely little, happy rabbit?

Jungle Vines

I bet you want to know what I'm thinking?

and

I bet what you're thinking I'm thinking, is not what I'm thinking.

Do you really want to know?

Regarding those bars I might look like I'm locked behind...

simply

It's absolutely not true.

They're not bars at all.

They're jungle vines.
