Clocks match a lot of things throughout a day, not just how you wave your arms for certain times. The day your tie was born, when your socks got married, the end of your drapes when you caught them up in another window. It's not coincidence.

Dreaming between
Light and dark

Existing between
Death and life

Wandering lost
In
A universe
In which
He holds within his eyes

She looks deeply
And sees it
Ever turning

The meteors
He throws
She catches
Holding
Dearly
To her heart
As treasures
To centre of
All he is

Dylan was lost in the fury of battle. Magpie had taken hits, but she, like the old warrior she was, kept going. #Magenta flashes of fire blinked and disappeared among the tumult.

This was going badly. So very badly. Or we’ll. so very well. He couldn’t tell. Only carry on fighting.

A magenta cloud rises
against the ebony sky
It's day’s last breath
Midnight is being born
What artist-soul climbs
to light the world
and turn our gaze
from its rounded weight?
Perhaps so
we might look upward
and, past our fears,
move more freely?

Taunt you I must
A midwinters kiss
With iced #magenta lips
That you lust

December solstice
Shadows longer
Frosty velvet sparked sky
Full of wiley tricks

First tell
As I unravel you
From your cocoon
You’ll swoon for my nightshade spell

a gossamer feast
tangled in #magenta sheets.
books strewn everywhere
empty wine glasses
on the windowsill.
its snowing somewhere.
there are two gray lakes to drown in...
another dream
in another faceless city.

Wait, what? My son’s friend, traveling in China, is staying at a hotel chain called ‘James Joyce Coffetel’, and instead of a Gideon Bible, they leave a copy of Ulysses by the bedside.

Don't even get me STARTED on the psychosis. I've been in manic psychosis. I know what it's like to hallucinate and be so sure of yourself when you're absolutely wrong.

ChatGPT and AI chatbots like it tell you everything you want to hear. They ENABLE your own mental self-destruction.
