Good afternoon! Today is a good day. It is ever so softly raining while being warm enough to walk around without a jacket. I have a lot to do today but I feel prepared for it. I sat beside my open window last night as cool springish air wafted in and over me. I felt strangely at peace. My worries had faded and the world seemed so much more right than it had in a long time, almost as if that moment would last forever and ever, infinitely calming. The world melted away and was replaced with a sense of togetherness I had not felt for a long time. I realize now that dreaming of peace is no fruitless endeavor. It is attainable, finally. Without further ado, a poem about losing your mind.
Mindfulness
therewithin
therewithout
extant sin
scream and shout
flies filed away
rife with decay
stagnant water
mosquito fodder
crawling on your skin
skittering in your ribcage
visions of infernal djinn
that demonic necrophage
it lies behind, ever so slightly
pittering, pattering, ever so lightly
controlling cordyceps
hearing footsteps
when mind you’ve found
you’ve lost your mind
