The book (new prose)

The book

The woman keeps each season pressed into books flowers leaves rock salt always putting the outside

inside always putting the very ground she's walked on up high on a shelf then forgetting about it the

pages change and wear away as any white skyed day would a bird is pressed in the sky a feather is

pressed in the snow winter berries on bottoms of tennis shoes the book took every color she had

forgotten until now and when she opens it again its words a child would write on her drawing of a

rainbow

I'm more rational today

 just a combination of many things, social media, no free speech, after all the time I've spent, Phil's diagnosis, my fight for justice inching on 30 years of fighting, and seeing no light at the end of tunnel, thinking I'm doing it all myself, and can't get a simple reply of encouragement. plus I do everything to access, and getting burnt out so often, they made fun of me about that too, when so many people are like me.  you think you got me figured out, think again! I've decided to stay on my blog, and keep Messenger, and the internet, but no social media posts anymore, but I haven't deleted any account.
