Malfunctioning

Once more without sleep all dreams exhausted Neurotransmitters on high alert rekindling furious flames that lap hungrily through mid-back to feet Like a chippy chiseling wood on the lathe I splinter and crack - screaming for regression Just as a computer malfunctioning I await time for reboot of my system brief medical intervention - some respite peace and solace that in the whole of life taken as one performance of the arts it is but a musical interlude short-lived in high anticipation of entr'acte Terms used:- chippy - a carpenter solace - relief from emotional distress/source of comfort at a time of sadness, grief or disappointment interlude - short period of transition/break entr'acte - between the acts
