Covered
You quilt fantasies
in your mind,
those granny squares
take time.
Negative space.
Binding.
Back stitching.
The brain makes blankets
to cover up the dullness of
everyday living.

Dear N,
“ The brain makes blankets
to cover up the dullness of
everyday living. ” it sure does and not the cotton soft kind either. The itchy wool ones are the ones my mind creates. You nailed it with this one. I really appreciated this analogy of the brain, memory and reality. Great write. H🌷

Word, we apply a story to the chaos stream, imposing a tree structure on a life that’s vines across a wall
