Really short one tonight. Had a little bit of a stressful day and some of the depression demons I thought I had exorcised came bursting out tonight. I tried to get up off the sofa to do this at 10:30pm but fell asleep until about 5 minutes ago. Maybe I am still catching up on all the sleep I missed due to the toothache. I don’t know.

There will be a whole lot more on the demons in future posts. I have been so livid all of tonight. Until such time as I can talk about all that though, I will have to leave you in suspense.

Here is a poem. Once again, the prompt comes from the good people over at #fieryverse.

The first time

I felt its pulsating, metronomic, metallic

beat in my grasp I was lost

forever, carving ligaments

for sublime A-sharps.
