Mount Sketso

so...

forty seven things to destroy the week,
and the "out" that I have is broken...

my muse is silent;
there is no escape,
there is no vent,
only this building pressure
and a forced attempt to kick in the door.

I want to be on the edge,
but take out the "the"
and I'm just teetering over.

sound the alarm!

and get away before...

eruption.

I've been feeling just like this for about a month and have tried about 800 times to put it into words--and failed. Thanks for writing and posting this--it spoke right to me--really really like it.

thanks for the unexpected fav... this comment explains it a bit. very kind words, too, as I feel my attempt to put it into words was more than inadequate for the... still ongoing "feeling", which is more like a lack thereof.

...harder on myself than others would be, but am I harder on myself than I *should* be? I think not... somehow, I feel the lack of rigidity (if that's even a word) is what has gotten me to this... place. I'm beginning to think that just giving in... merely existing... rather than struggling for "life"... could be... better.
