AFTER MIDNIGHT            CHAPTER 12

I was doing the dishes when Spencer, the waitress called me. “…some one wants to see you.”

   “If it’s not official, let the person come over here.” I told her and continued washing the cups. Next I heard sharp knocks of lady’s shoes. There came a lady. She was dressed in trousers, a white top and that was Stephanie! The woman who, my nightmare! I felt laziness in my mind and didn’t want to look at her. She…

standing in the middle of the crowd

looking for something that is hard to find

staring far at distance

searching for something that could never be found

its like waiting for someone whose gone

its like remembering what you forgot

hear my voice, hear my songs

here are my hands trying to catch you

to take out the pain you felt inside

give you care to make you smile

oh hear me, oh hear…

I sometimes envy those authors whose books are centered in New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles. They describe neighborhoods and toss out street names and locations like a poker dealer throwing out the new hands to the players. Of course, if those authors live in those cities, then the familiarity is understood. For me, though, it’s still amazing because they seem to…

Intentionally relying on intentions

Remember intention relies on chance, not you

Addictive personality has driven me here

Wait, no, pause, right, straight, there

Warped perceptions are poisonous

Not much different in our lives

Just completely different in our realities

Different isn't always bad, I say

I am not saintly…

(« Dante and Beatrice gaze upon the highest Heaven » by Gustave Doré)

You know what really scares me

Still now at the age of forty one

Is being all alone and unable to see

There’snowhere leftto go, nowhere left to run

You know what I am afraid to feel

Is sickness, or any form of pain

Aging is a process, a part of the deal

But what if the first to go is my memory, my brain

You know what I don’t want to lose

The chance to amend many a wrong

To die without sharing, thoughts…

 feeling so lost when your not around

being in love is the hardest part of life

but it is the sweetest and romantic

creating a whole new world

living in a small world alone

having three volcanoes and a rose

he lives alone 2x

but the problem may never go

and if living in a new world

living together forevermore

As a new writer I'm finding that I need to take a break from time to time and let my brain catch up to my story.  Then all of a sudden in the middle of the night an idea will hit me of how to pick up where I left off and my story continues...is this normal?  I also find I keep going back and re-reading and re-writing what I've already written...Have you found this approach works for you or am I making more work for myself when I'll probably need my work professionally edited anyway?
