Insecurity:
On a scale I can tell you I am a 5. Maybe a 6. Sometime a 7. Of insecurity. Sometimes I’m a 4. Or a 3. Or a 2, maybe. Insecurity Lines up with Fear, it’s apparently purple. I didn’t know that, I guess, you could assign fear a color though. I don’t think so. …
Instinct of an alcoholic
I suppose that The cats can tell That the air is thick. That breathing is different, In some way. I suppose their instincts Kick in Just like they do when They take up the hunt. Eyes follow what must be a spider or a fly Fluttering in the corner. She has given up on Scratching …
