Waiting The storm arrived suddenly during the night as the wind howled in from the ocean, whipping the waves and sending them crashing in fountains of foam against the pair of high rock columns that rose from the churning seas by the shoreline. In the small cottage near the waterfront, the shutters rattled in the wind and the man in the cottage’s lone bed snapped awake. He lay still and silent for a few moments, identifying the cause of the noise, then he was up and dashing for the door, fully clothed, pausing only to seize the Sig Sauer which lay within easy reach on the bedside table and a jacket from the peg beside the door.

 Outside, the
Forests of the Mind"And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything." William Shakespeare

In the forest my thoughts
ring unnaturally loud,
like a voice on
an open stage
when nobody’s around.

Stories unfold in my mind,
new leaves in the spring
twisting,
unfurling from pale green buds
like butterflies emerging
from their chrysalis,
the pages of a never-ending saga
written in birdsong
and soft, wind-rustled branches.

My mind flows like the brook,
cold crystal,
smoothing the rough edges
of my narrative, fluid and free
until time catches me
and my thoughts are d
TeeterWhen I wake,
I am
among the stars,
       poised
               on the brink
       between dreams and reality.

It’s so easy
to see through the
       broken bonds
                           between waking life...
               and the power of Imagination,

                           that same other world
                      so close...
               too close.
Separate realities
in a sea of dreams.
