Loose Connection

Mind-drilling.

Deep thoughts...
Shhhh! Put off the TV!

Quietude.

\"Mom, where\'s my shirt?\"
Shhhh! Shut up!

Startled. Confused.

Vast recollection.

Derided. Unruffled.

Mind drifts far...
Hallucination. Delusion.
Multicolored, soft as clouds.
Tranquility.

\"Dinner is served\"
No! not starved.

Momentary silence.

Brush on pallette.
Pen on paper.
Fingers on frets.

An obramaestra.

\"Mom! for god\'s sake!\"
Shhhhhhhh!gimme a break!
\"You give us a break!\"

Sanity...madness
Madness...sanity

Solitary confinement.

Usual concentration.
Internalizing...
Digging. Drilling.

Gotcha!
Alas!...a masterpiece!
Hail to an artist!
By the way,
Where are my kids?
On their way...

No visits on Monday.

Utter calm.

\"How is she, Doc?\"
Stabilizing.

Metals unwind.
Stood riveted.
Corroded.
Lost thread.

Still.
