Burning Through (75mg Caliber)

With no preamble, my mind tells me: Today is the last day for the medication. Even though the bottomless bottle still rattles with an expectation to "take until complete," I have to pause this endless stream of chemistry ( Read more... )

hi, i hope the MRI results come back as a relief and that treatment goes well. i hope for the best. fingers crossed and all of that. medical stuff is frustrating...

anyways, i really like your writing a lot, i love all of your usage of metaphor!!! pills are bullets, they are.

this entry is written really incredibly as always. i wish i had even a fraction of an ability to write in the way you do. i write like a 5 y/o lol

i hope all is well. PS I forgot to mention that i liked the pictures in your last entry.

best wishes

Well, I wish I had a fraction of your artistic skills! I draw like a five-year old, stick figures and all. Truth of the matter is that my writing is 90% hypnagogic catharsis, so a lot of entries are left behind, unposted, but I like the idea of referencing themes in life as they arise, like hyperlinking tunnels that trace paths underground and under the conscious everyday experience. There are so many caverns, dead-ends, and surprising entryways to surface-level reality.

Thank you for the kind comments! Eager to read and see more from your entries as well.

"like hyperlinking tunnels..underthe conscious...caverns..entryways surfacelevel reality" i love that... thats such a beautiful way to describe it..!!

i love your usage of themes and stuff, it's something i'm able to recognize better nowadays.

i'm glad you think i have artistic skills! i don't really know what i'm doing more than half the time(not just when drawing), but it means a lot that you say i have skills. also, i would LOVE to see your stickfigure rendition of "The Birth of Venus"

hypnagogic catharsis... i like that.
i think that for me, being in altered states while creating whether extremely sleep deprived or *cough* (flower), can create something that might not be there otherwise in normal circumstances. i like going underneath too! i think the subconscious is such an interesting thing and i wish i could talk to it.

thank you for your replies. and thanks! i also have a lot of unfinished/unposted stuff, because i get a little nervous when i post about myself, but i wanna write about a lot of stuff.
i have so much i wanna ( ... )
