refreshed

Hand-made wicker glider for love, stacks of colorful stowaways on stark white beams, bright plastic furniture, tall lace up brown boots and pearly shades of grey, a bonfire to keep the panthers away, jubilant patty cake games and a sweet brown lab curled up in resignation.  xo

Last night was strange: full of restless sleep, perseverating thoughts and dark dreams.  When I got to work there were whispers of a relapse, or maybe something worse. I had him stay close to me with his red-rimmed eyes, hollow cheeks and vacant stare, eagerly grateful for hot tea.  He slept on the couch in the living room, his unrest eventually melting to stillness. I dreamed of past students, bloated and decaying of flesh, urgent with desperation and wild running horses. Thought-pancakes of stale playa dust flipped over in my mind, flat and insubstantial.

at the time, it seemed to fit perfectly

I found my mug.  It was in my ski boot.
