Email To Subby Conscience

(Gail's Note: Reply Email from Subby Conscience is the sequel to this.) To: Subby Conscience From: gadeb@zzzsmail.com Re: Communication between You and Me Date: February 4, 2012 Why isn't it easy to call you at will? Couldn't I just Twitter or email you until You provide the answer in clear, solid terms So that I don't have to lie in your chaotic squirms? Instead, you tug at my psyche And laugh at my logic. You taunt and tug at my struggles And sap my dream tonic. You expose my repression While disguised as a friend All the while sneaking around In my personal REM. A swirl of feelings Interferes with the theme. Makes my heart pound and pound. Makes it seem like a scheme To interrupt sleep And destroy my 8 hours. To wither my psyche And sap super powers. And then comes the waiting Sometimes for years Of what this all means Could it always be fear? But unknown to you Over time you are helping To harness the pounding And process all my days' yelpings So that I can function in the AM and more While you are repressed as I cozily soar.
