Can't help but wonder if you are writing about the art, or found art to go with your write? Quite a picture. And your poem had me visualizing a pain holding its side all bent over slinking away in shame, limping along among the pieces of a headache laying all over your mind.
The picture is so dramatic, I had to look away. That said, have a feeling you chose it very carefully.
Your words, nine of them, say so much, need veer away form thoughts of the above.. and focus on the drama if your powerful words.. seems part pain and part fear of a direction you definitely do not want to travel. Denial of possibility, perhaps, KAREN?
Wish i had read this before now to exchange with you or read your reaction. Take care, keep safe, please.
My take on this is she’s trying to say something but her thoughts or self hate or self worth get in the way she says the opposite of what she really feels
Great art and words
When the mind is defunct, words seem to scatter and one can't get a grip on it; it's like a giant headache that grips one and holds one in a cage, where words are nil; picking up the pieces is hard, but there should be some hope that when one frees oneself from this grip, words and the mind will flow like a river
the pain of not being able to poem, when the feelings , the thoughts, the words
make a temporary stop in the mind, but move on before we can catch them and release the pain that caused them.
