Blur
The fog and frost
reflect my inner world today,
muted, held in waiting
for a thaw.
reflect my inner world today,
muted, held in waiting
for a thaw.
The muffled sounds
that reach my ears,
are jangled,
scratchy echoes
of their source.
I walk beyond
the looking glass,
and only wish
for home.
(So no one worries too much, I have a very bad head cold today, which is making me feel very disjointed, miserable, and far away.)

Post a CommentTHank you all for your comments and well wishes! I am still on the mend, the sub zero temps aren't helping, but that's an Iowa winter for you.
Hope you feel better soon!
Very good! Many have felt this way, few have expressed it so well. Furthermore, we all tend to dismiss this sort of thing as just a passing mood but we shouldn't. We should write about our world, our experiences. I like "Welcome to my world! You can have it!" When William Morris was visiting France in the 1900's, He was in a coach approaching a famous landmark in Paris, he was ecstatic! "The architecture! The architecture!" a french woman who happened to be in the same coach said" "I like architecture, but there was nothing there but the Notre Dame cathedral." Unfortunately, we all tend to be like her. "It was just an ordinary dragon! When you've seen one you've seen em all!"
I hope you feel better. I'm sure you will soon.
I hope you are feeling better soon, sweetie.
there always comes a thaw...spring always follows winter so hang in there, hope you feel much better soon :)
Thank goodness every day is not like this one!
You captured the effects of being stuffed up really well.
