the pressure of the immaterial

I can almost hear

the door slam

 

a vacuum sucking shut

as I leave the room

of nothingness.

 

My bubbles once begged

to burst within it

 

but nothing is as nothing

does and denies all

but more of the same--

 

the bends were a bitch

and I'm bound to re-emerge.

Hi Rachel,

Just playing a little catch-up at the moment; haven't been able to leave feedback for a while.

A darkest-before-the-dawn vibe to this:

My bubbles once begged
to burst within it..

Then rising to the surface..

Hey Ray. I've been in preparation to embark upon a journey into unexplored territory (hopefully long-term) and I haven't been focused much on writing.

Life does get rather dull when all you seem to accomplish is another revolution on the hamster wheel--this is my way of kissin' it all off.

Good to hear from you, Ray, always..and hello there, Colin, David, and Emer--many thanks.

Lovely writing - full of inner tension seeking expression Rachel. The idea of coming up for air (inspiration of a kind) is compelling.
