The double-zeros

I started with a party and am ending the same way.

I began with a wandering heart and wound up madly in love.

I set off with dreams and went out to achieve them.

Bring on the teens.

Happy

Hanging out with my boy and my kitty. Fun fruitcake adds to it. Ask me for the recipe.

Merry Christmas to all my favorite goyim. And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

The Fam at the Farm



Missing

It was a rip,
an expulsion.
It was a birth.
There was no choice
but to accept paralysis
at bedside:

Wish you were here
did not begin
to cover it.

Today's writing

It is perhaps most strongly felt in dreams.

Within that smeary half-landscape something peels away, something else pokes out an ugly head, waves a warning finger.

I am rendered mute by abandonment. I am blindsided by loss.
