IN ME
My head needs thrill. It needs restlessness and adventure. It needs him. Sanity and safety are boring. I look at him and his bright watery eyes are all set and we nod. I crouch, take my last breath of instinct and then I straighten my knees bend at waist touching my feet and look ahead. Ready to plunge.
I once got a bird for myself. It was drawn to me as much as I was to it.

Waiting at an airport for a delayed flight, frantically worrying that I could miss the connecting flight, I had to force a deep breath for a moment of quiet. Before this I was alternating between listening for announcements, cribbing for the shoddy service at a cafe, checking my phone for msgs (which I wasn't receiving, reading... Continue Reading →
