A constant droning threatens to overtake me. My mind burns slowly but I don't allow myself to disappear, a sensation that feels so familiar but also so foreign like a stranger that I've known all my life floods me overwhelming my entire being. Pain. I feel disconnected from my body torn somehow, I am no longer in control. Powerless as the circle closes around me threatening to wipe away my very being. My vessel attempts to hold me but it's a broken glass and like liquid I slip out filling the area around me. For a brief moment I catch a glimpse of what once was me. torn into a thousand- peaches rasberrys float by with big grins, beckoning me, "I have to save the princess" I mutter "I don't have time to play with coconuts" why am I so light? I need to find the key the key will open the gate. I turn around paste white paste everywhere.... I'm shrinking "I don't want to eat the cake." Stammering a thousand yarns sing a thousand hymes a sound so beautiful yet so ugly fills me, dancing dancing into the sun. "I don't want to disappear."

  Warm. So warm I am safe. A small flame flickers in front of me just beyond my reach. Taunting me. "tell me why do you come to my place in the stars." The flame speaks with no voice. A thousand meanings a thousand thoughts collide. Weight beyond a thousand suns collapses upon me. Words that have no meaning spew from my lips. The flame disappears.
