Veneers of hope

9/11/2019

Cane stalks bow in dirty drifts
ripples lift like scaled wings
flits shriek and spin,
and spin

shattered panes quiver as shock waves
storm hidden enclaves
slaves stir awake
dazed

turbulent skies rage, swirling cloud
unveils a brittle cage
light flickers
fades

Veneers of hope peel away
onion skin slates, black sheathes
dangle and drop, shatter
on glassy substrate
Aphid wakes

This journal confronts childhood trauma, adult PTSD and anxiety disorder. There are also experiential themes of ACOA (being an adult child of an alcoholic).

I'm hoping this research and testimony can help the 1 in 5 children and adult children either experiencing addiction and abuse, or the adult consequences.

We can heal ourselves.

THIS IS A CHAOTIC AND PERSONAL ACCOUNT, PLEASE ALLOW FOR FREE THOUGHTS, EMOTIONAL EXPRESSION AND POETRY.
