Halfway to Hanoi
I was barely halfway to Hanoi
when I grew tired,
of just about everything ..
Of sleeping
with strangers and so many
other things besides ..
Indeed, I am now almost too
ashamed to even
think about most of them ..
That’s when,
she said, welcome to your
very own oblivion
so now consider yourself
well warned ..
Just be sure I shall feed you
only, if and when
you become helplessly hungry ..
But in the meantime,
please accept my sincerest
of greetings
and these ones too,
from your personal Dachau ..
On reflection,
I seem to think, it might have
been then,
I fell hopelessly in love with
those big blue
mascaraed eyelashes of hers ..
And when she did
eventually notice me staring
at them, she smiled ..
And asked how many hurts
was I prepared
to share with her there today ..
While all the while
curiously examining a fresh
burn, she was
busy creating upon her near
perfect nakedness ..
And in the very next breath,
the scent of fresh
napalm, began to fill our arena ..

This is quite cryptic but written with such feeling. It reads like the disturbed sleep of someone uncomfortable in their own skin and in a turbulent fight with their own conscience. Kind of unsettling even... which I.love x
Thank you our M .. I have been working backwards on and off for a while .. this is a brief cameo of my first gap year, during which I apparently nearly died .. I think I mentioned it yonks back .. x
Oh wow!! I've now read it with completely different eyes!!! How very bloody lucky you are to have had ... a taster?... it must make it so much easier to have faith?? I read loads on the subject and it always amazes me how many in the medical field have had such experiences and I always wonder how they integrate such blatant contradiction of their training Â
and the current 'norms' of mental health if you know what I mean.Â
Absolutely fascinating Nev x

I do know what you mean our Marion .. and I thank you again .. x
...from your personal Dachau? Ouch! Heavy!
Don't you start feeling guilty now, Nev. Young and reckless perhaps,
but youth is what youth is supposed to be. BÂ
Yes, a long time ago I was a very norty boy .. or should that read naive and stoopid .. still, I enjoyed much of it .. the rest is ancient history ..Â
I guess that as well .. thanks for being on my side R & RÂ
