Comments on 'The Land of Constant Dreaming'How do I rouse myself from this land of constant dreaming? Try as I might, I can never completely catch something solid to hold on to.
It's raining. I can hear it pattering against the flimsy tin roof, the sound of each raindrop magnified until the storm is disproportionate to the noise it's making against the eaves. I used to worry that the roof would just fall in. But that was ages ago.
I don't worry any more.
I stopped keeping track of things the day they took my books away, carting them off in big cardboard boxes. Not labled, of course. Not organized.
Never the way I like. Never up to me.
Not now. Not anymore.
They took down the clocks shortly after they took away my books. But they don't know that I've got something of a clock buried deep inside of me. They stopped up the windows. But somehow, someway, my heart just knows what's when.
As for where, I wouldn't know.
Somedays I can hear the mumbling down the hall. But always, always, I keep the note she slipped under the door.2007-09-14T22:56:22Zhttp://ficlets.com/feed/story/9170Comment on The Land of Constant Dreaming<p>Stovohobo, that’s probably one of the most positive notes I’ve ever gotten! =) Thank you, but I don’t really think any of this is publishing material – that calls for longer stuff, of which I seem unable to really do.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/9170?basename=121942007-09-14T22:56:22Z[pens&feathers]http://ficlets.com/authors/rhapsodyyinbluComment on The Land of Constant Dreaming<p>You know what, Pens? I’m not even gonna comment anymore. There’s a reason why they have a little thing called publishing—do it. It’s much more worthy of your time than lowly readers like me. =)</p>
<p>Anyway, as usual, your descriptions are beautiful, your imagery is astounding, your blah blah blah, etc., etc., etc…</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/9170?basename=115152007-09-12T01:11:49ZStovohobohttp://ficlets.com/authors/stovohoboComment on The Land of Constant Dreaming<p>prison/place for troubled teens? not sure the setting, but its a good story and sad. impressive</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/9170?basename=114662007-09-11T23:06:23ZSKermitgorfhttp://ficlets.com/authors/kermitgorf
