I am in and out of hope and doubt, under the sun and moon. . .the craggy old women I turn to for refuge and strength,

cover themselves so I cannot find them and unveil their daughters days later. . .I am glad I continue to hold on though I don't know what is really in my hands.

the stone women covered their shoulders in white chiffon shawls and hid their faces in the clouds but we bare breasted and proud of those craggy old peaks. . .I saw a giant white phantom goose flying above them and below the blue.

Beautiful poetry and sum of what'd going on in your life. Its a excellent post in the aspect of the pictures used to key in the right emotion. Almost like looking at a magazine with a heartfelt article.  Never heard of sexsomnia but you are Carnelian, and that makes sense enough to understand you. Time to refill the dantien after your orgasm.   -smk

In your quest to get lost, try not to become so in the day-to-day. Been there. It is a shallow kind of death. Change and grow and learn. These are the keys to life. Stagnation and loss of hope turn rusted tumblers and lock the doors that lead to the next place you need to be, so keep spinning. Keep touching. You are not alone out here in the Great Empty.

i've been letting these words simmer and swirl inside my brain for a few days. they are intriguing and exhilarating. words have not escaped you, or at least your ability to to express your wanderlust. i hope you've been able to "crash wildly into the sea", or will be able to soon, without completely losing your way back home, eventually.
