Breakdown
====
my dreams of late
are but whispers of dark madness
sparkling demons kiss my name in the howling wind
the resonating shriek razor thin
pierces deep the lines of cerebral logic
awake is only temporary coherence
fear dangles it’s ice picks above
poised to plummet and shatter
my fleeting grasp on reality
I am an optical scream perceived
distortion of violent overbearing colors
reverberate their haunting torment
weighing me down
a desperate prisoner…help me.

I am a very creative person and it’s my way of dealing with the world, inside and out. I am only happy when I am making things or painting or writing. There are just not enough hours in the day…. I am into poetry and photo manipulation at the moment and also dabbling in photography. :-)

Untouched by her own thorny pain.

Outstanding work. Love the almost medusa like barbed wire seeming to extend from her hair.
:-) Thank you. My favourite is the butterfly.
– Sybille Sterk
oh the butterfly, the butterfly…the closed eyes hiding yet showing the torment. oh dear Sybille when you put art to my words I am speechless (although I could go on for quite a while) truth is you capture what I feel and cannot express. you honor me – truly, you are such a gift. thank you so, so much. I am beyond loving it. : )) xoxoxo
Oh phew!!! I am so glad it works for you. This was a ‘coincidental’, subconscious manipulation. I just let it flow with no plan whatsoever and it came together all by itself. LOL xo

Oooooh! is that barb wire? Love it!
:-) Yep, definitely barbed wire. :-) LOL It was the most interesting pic of barbed wire I could find. I like it too. There’s something so menacing and scary about it. Thanks for your comment. :-)
