Los Angeles 2022

Post by creativesoul » November 6th, 2022, 10:50 am

My sister lives in Santa Monica
My dog of 13 years is here

The memories of a childhood creep in
Looking back on a place of sadness

The sea engulfing my soul
The pier where so many stuffed animals
And fortune tellers gathered around
The Ferris wheel

The way of happiness seemed to laugh

Your eyes
Follow me

You make me tremble

Los Angeles seems to take care of the important stuff
And the rest is over exposed
Like a film that is on going

The husband of my sister
Is a writer

Kind of

But when asked to read a screenplay
I feel like “ kill me now”
The teenagers are running the show here

Parents scrambling and struggling to understand the hormones
And autonomy’s questions to the spiritual

I am a fool
I am on the couch
Wishing for an out some that might never happen

But I had this moment to feel all the things a woman can feel
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
