The train wails a lonely cry as the cars behind drone and screech metal on metal rumble rumble rumble squeal squeal wail wail wail rumble rumble rumble The house shakes from the vibration The roar groan permeates these thin walls and single panes of amplifying glass Faintly I hear the horn saying, GOOD BYEEEE, GOOOD…
Slamming the Door on a Dream
A door slammed and heavy footsteps woke me my eyes flew open as consciousness hit me in the head. The dream of my friend turning himself into a frog and my arguing with my mother over the size of the container we put him in in the kitchen of my old house made me realize…
Circular Dreams
"Mommy, would you answer the phone?" The Silent Sentinel's request woke me from a not so pleasant sleep. The phone rang it was my ex husband. Sigh, there are things I hate waking up to and he is one of them. The call of course being about My Child, who left his medicine here this…

Ghost Cat
Ghost cat woke me by repeatedly walking across my feet to wake me from my sleep. (I checked there were no mice having a party at the end of my bed.) What a surprise I have a new friend Better to have a ghost feline for a friend than nightmares that wake me up gasping…
Bread Crumbs
I was thinking about leaving a written trail of bread crumbs for someone to find. A list of items, memoirs, notes and photographs that explained my actions. Then I remembered, my anonymous blog is a trail of bread crumbs. My crumbs drop behind me as I walk into the leaves the crunch swish of yellow…
Morning Aura
In the mornings, there's a pulse in my neck that plays along with my optical migraines. Rhythm with an ocular slide-show only I can see. A veil flickers over my vision blurry pulsing in time with my heart beat. Good morning aura!
