float midflight

[SmileGRL]

.
the scene is a citadel, matrix style. i crouch graCefully on top of a concrete tRee with shiny mirrored leaves observing miniature giaNts down below. they aLL seem to know wHere to go. this is a dreaM but it couLd have been a movie if it waSn't so surreal. the phone rings. pieRcing thick white silence. the white rabbit runs. oLd mother speaks. of winged insects sCreaming in pain. & time sLiPping through. fingers grab my feaR & shaKe. her wrinkles fall into my ears like piNk lipstick smears. it's time to shed thiS skin. if i could just shrug off the fairy riding me like a wiLd mustang, kick off iMaginary stripper shoes…panic rises in my throat. i could aLways floaT. but soMe days i can't fiNd the ground. & there's nowhere leFt to hide. croSs my legs. cLose my eyes. breathe. breatHe. i become a floWer. viRginal & caLm. i float above the furry caR parked inside my souL. buildings fade. roads evaporate. the wind catches my hair miDflight. i land on clouds of miNt green. "breathe" she whiSpers softly, then disappears

you are in command of your medium - all the elements in the composition are in sync.

Or the other way around.

Also, I can't see any vowels in CAPS. Any particular reason for that? Did I miss one?

The second read of this is just as great. Your psychedelic imagery sparkles in my mind like an electric dream. Your poetic gift is manifold.

constantine...thaNk you for tHat. deeply

yejun...indeed, no vowels in caps, this time. no reason. that's just how it came out. sometimes it's emphasis and sometimes it's whimsy. kind of like a painting.

john...thank you kindly, my friend

maree...thanks babe. *she blows her a little kiss*

hester...thank you
