254.
eyes
finger
the index

255.
The clothes dance
out of the closet
ruffled and whispering

256.
the empty evening
tottering
into bed.

257.
Color the matter
worn out.
you’ve got to leave us alone

258.
This year had built
A long winter
breaking people down

    • I think everything has its own spirit though we may not recognize how it exists or communicates (if it does). The idea of all these thoughts, activities, and so on going on around us and we are not knowing, that idea has always been in my head since I was a child. I don’t find it scary but I do feel at times it certainly makes for a crowded experience. And I totally agree, closet doors must be closed at night. And my hand or foot must never go over the edge of the bed, especially the side by the wall, if the bed is near the wall.
