“There is something waiting for us at the edge of the woods, and it is our fate to meet it.” Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Not Alone Walking, alone, not alone, tone imperceptible, feelings shifting, a movement peripheral makes my saliva coppery, narrowed eyes darting, alert, the sound of nothing, spine creeps scared, skittering leaves startle, distant urban shrill, nerves on edge as my mind traverses fluid shadows watching me.
