Photo by Ryoji Iwata on Unsplash . In the nighttime hours things divide into smaller pieces that seem to make sense.Then the dreams come, and people have hidden knowledge released beyond the veil..Only to wake up to more confusion. A mind divided by nightmares cannot stand for very long..When dawn arrives, the light flickers in between crippling muscle spasms, as you cry out for even the...

Photo by Transly Translation Agency on Unsplash I have been through a living nightmare, as of late. I just got out of the psych ward very recently.

I am getting weaned off...
