Nothing New
October 11, 2012
Suddenly, I find
My head in the clouds,
In the atmosphere, with no air,
And you tell me to breathe deep
Suddenly, I find
My body under the earth,
In the dirt, with no light,
And you tell me to open my eyes
Suddenly, I find
My thoughts are scattered,
In my mind, with no order
And you tell me to think straight
Suddenly, I find
Part of me is somewhere else,
Separated from the rest of me, no life to it
And you tell me to pull myself together
Suddenly, I find
It’s not so sudden
I saw it coming
It’s nothing new

Stuck in Place
Amy whistled as she walked through her front yard, looking for any sticks she could pick up and throw into the pile she and her brother were making. They had a big windstorm recently; as such, all the trees in their yard had suffered some damage in some loss of sticks. Or perhaps losing those sticks was a good thing since their trees probably needed to be pruned anyway. Amy wasn't sure.
