How can you be feck?

What is less than feck?

I don’t understand feck?

Did feck once mean true?

How else does one become feckless?

Should I talk about it?

Do they really need to know.

Mentioning it usually causes discomfort.

But not talking about it

is just as dangerous or worse.

Courage is required.

My voice will be added!

The tasks were completed.

I fixed some problems.

Relaxation and enjoyment were found.

Friends met and talked.

So much was done.

And I still feel refreshed!

Yellow fruit and green leaves

dance in my head.

Video pixelated for maximum enjoyment.

The other products are colourful and abundant.

Dreams do funny things

and yet I still see the fruit upon waking.

The trigger signs were subtle.

A suffocating air of tears.

The only conscious thought

was to get home safely!

Deep breaths only went so far.

Emotions were in turmoil.

Home!

The cyclone was released.

My own personal hurricane.

To be safe I must attend to the sickness in my brain.

 

Brush your teeth.

Eat your vegetables.

Stand up for your beliefs,

but don’t deny others theirs!

Use kind words,

or say nothing at all.

Mind your manners.

Don’t be afraid to take action.

Unless it involves waking mommy up before her alarm goes off!

The cat sits

perched comfortably.

Attention wanted.

Attention unwanted.

He watches all that surrounds him.

And when I vacate mine.

It is the perfect warm spot

to curl up in!

The urge doesn’t go away.

Sometimes it is stronger.

Other times barely there.

The withdrawal signs acute.

The hands can twitch uncontrollably.

Otherwise eyes flutter wildly.

Headaches and joint pains.

The desire is for it to end!

But when the fever and chills

strike again and again

The body lies there and cries.

I realize now my mistake.

Eager to not pass up opportunity

I left something undone!

To my regret, my intentions were true

but my actions did not reflect

what my aim was to do.

If only I could take vitamins to make up for this horrible deficiency!

Buy one, get one.

Is it free?

How much did I save?

Seriously?

That’s the price!

Heck, you are giving them away!

What a sale!

Glad to see us both smiling!
