CABIN FEVER

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I’m Not Really Sick

I Just Have Cabin Fever,

Escape

A desert enters your soul
hot sun settles deep into bones

Burrow

If I had a burrow

I would crawl into it

Make a bed of soft moss

The Difference Between Me And You

I think there’s been a misunderstanding.

I like rain storms, not brain storms

Real streams, not work streams

LET ME OUT

The lights are buzzing, they’re really far too bright

The phones don’t stop ringing…this just isn’t right

 

I’m sipping cool tea from a plastic vending cup

There’s too much to do and I want to give up

All I need

 

Sometimes I can just escape
when I’m sitting on a train
Travelling to another business meeting
in the sunshine or the rain
I have my music and a playlist
and that is all I need
Watching the world rush by outside
whilst I travel on at speed

Monarch’s Way

 

Following King Charlie’s footsteps
Along The Monarch’s Way
To the Ring once more again we walked
On a blustery winter’s day

Release

Photo from Cow girl dairies

Drip, drip, drip warm wet release.

It oozes out of me

Painful frozen squeeze please.

Stop the bloody pain.

Close My Eyes

Tonight I’ll find a wishing well
Tomorrow’s a new day
Tonight I’ll find a wishing well
Before it’s too late

I need someone to show me the way
Why do my dreams keep slipping away?
Spent a whole lifetime running away

Marrow

 

as a child, I would escape behind the drapes that hung on the picture window at my parent’s home
the feel of comfort in hiding
the calmness of disguise

if only I could be seen for who I am
and not the troubling child they thought me to be

The Writer.

 

I sit at the desk.

I am silent.

But the screams in my head, they will not stop.

Louder and louder they become.

They shout abuse,

I feel infected.

Inflicted,

Paralysed.

All ideas are wrapped up inside of me.
