the error

There was Darkness, 
for a while.



And I lost my way.


Beneath my feet the
ground was gone
The earth was spinning
(faster, FASTER)


I fell.


I didn't think you'd find me.

the misstep notes



maybe it's not that we sing different songs.
maybe our words are exactly the same

but we just play them to a different beat.

so
where i'm slow, you're fast
where i'm whimsical, you're strong
where i linger and pause, you rush far ahead

and where we could make beautiful music
we get stuck.
in a clinking. clanging. banging. mess.

dissolving this would-be symphony
into a hum of cluttered riffs

eclipse

















She paused for a moment, delicately perched between what Was and what Would Be. So fragile, she seemed; a wee wisp of rainbowcloud dreams, a lifetime yet to begin living.

But the Light shifted and you glimpsed, in that fleeting shadowmotion, the steelfrost core at the center of the dream. 

And when the Light returned, she was gone.
