Envisage yourself anew, then

cleave to her

like a kitten to milk. Can your therapist bring you nearer than this?

In five years time, I’ll watch as you

pickle depression in Ball jars of your own tears, press

safe twenty-something hopes into a book.

Even I don’t want that.

Acrostic

Popping in for a brief season. A small bubble has surfaced and will burst again soon, no doubt. New stories expected at unexpected times. Vocal is for challenges, so I will oblige.
