Derangement

I’ve felt the soft surface of temporal fabric, watched the world begin to fold small, then smaller & smaller…

…organic origami elided into water, rearing over what remained of what was no longer me.

Electricity began to scream;

nameless incandescence;

sound waves of colour;

cold feathers folding down, down, down. Inside nothing remained but space & light, a deep divide between body & mind.

Quick flicker of panic as all thoughts plunge into ice…

then it doesn’t matter what I try to write or if I write

nothing at all.
