life holds me in its grasp
confined to this world
patiently awaiting occurrences
comatose at times
intermittent joy at others
mostly bored or riddled stiff with being
with each jarring
life rasps the essence of me finer
the wholeness diminished
there’s less of me
until there is nothing left
this is the cycle of life

Love this one with the image of being sifted! Life is a cycle of good and bad and the in between. We learn to endure and sometimes enjoy the ride…

That’s actually how this piece started. For some reason in my mind, the feeling of life impacting felt like being being “rasped into nothingness”, and then the image of sifting flour appeared. 🙂 Glad you enjoyed it, Val!
