Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
I believe almost all changes are positive.

Walk Down

by Erik Rosales

 

Head numb. 

                 Dull ache. 

                               Dry cough. 

                                              Clean Break. 

 

Walking away is a kind of cleansing. 

 

Even liquor bellied, back in the close four cornered white room, there is a calm felt here.

 

 An equanimity with the world, saying: “this is how it will be. This is what it always was.” 

 

This is nothing more than

 

(HICCUP)

 

 a graduation.
