I’ve seen space change
Large to small and larger again
I don’t know what caused it
The universe
Love
For some reason we were drawn to each other
I’ve seen your face change
It wasn’t scary at the time
The thought scares me now
The sight of it in others
Even just the thought
I’ve seen my puppy walk in circles, making space
Stretching like an accordion
No, a wave
Something I can’t quite see
The best we can do is not understand
Not only is it not possible
Is it selfish to want to know?
Just accept
Dawes says things happen
That’s all they ever do
That’s all they ever do
That’s all they ever do
You know, people used to say the same thing about Ted bundy
That he switched
The charisma disappears
Your face shrinks and space disappears
It’s not pretty
Since then, it scares me to see in others
Makes me crazy
Desperate to understand
I try to cast it out
My comfort zone
What I’m used to
It might’ve happened to me
Maybe my face changes in that way
My space
But I know how to change it back
Myself
About the Creator

Her Majesty Mia and her minions
I rule this rag tag lot… they’re not much, but they’re all I’ve got! I preside at the head of the table, my indisputable, rightful place. But, I randomly perch on other chairs at a moment’s notice… whenever the mood strikes. Such fun keeping them off balance. Fun reminding them who’s boss... ME!
