and then i realize that i have spent hours dreaming imagining
for my mind keeps a vice grip on me and i cannot wriggle free until i am satisfied with how my stories have played out.
sometimes i must start my tale all over for i gave a character the wrong name or made them say something that is too unlike them
but i don't mind at all— i just keep imagining
—for sometimes the places i make in my mind are better than the reality i live in.
