When I turned the page
what happened kept me.
Unbeknownst to me.
Ink blotched in all directions
My Bones hollowed to the mess
A gnashing of teeth
And at its center a spiral!
Once again,
An interruption to the chapter.
Endless Pools of penwork pulled
My eyes in its futile direction
It was only when I caught
The words.
Repeating.
Telling me what I’ve always known.
That guided me back.
