Margaret Alice Second - A Swollen Tortoise

Margaret Alice Second - A Swollen Tortoise

We happily conversed while you experimented, br I promised myself I won't take a bite as you added br beef stock to curry, when I refused you insisted, it br should be safe - now I'm awake, a small fire in my br intestines reminding me why my world is so small br br Step over the line of eating restriction and pay the br price, I can't sleep at all, listening to Tiaan's restless br pacing indicates he shares my fate; can't close my br eyes, can't lie down, the floor does not offer any br respite - I'm convicted by my own choice to br br eat things my system cannot process - I resemble br Ionesco's rhinoceros, feeling like a swollen tortoise*, br I read multiple personalities react differently to stimuli br depending on which one occupies the body - I wish br I had another me, like the three faces of Eve - to br br change my chemical set-up, the only effect change br has is varied feelings - from terribly depressed to br totally ecstatic - yet my body remains the same br oversensitive seismograph - making me wish br for separation of body and mind br br As soon as possible… br br 16022012 br br *or a beached whale - whichever comes first…br br Margaret Alice Secondbr br
