You have large

connotations

too many to list,

number, or define.

.

So unshakable

like an unscratchable

itch, as if you were a talisman 

that has lost your luck.

Sincerely Mine,


The Pained

Great write

The idea of a talisman longing to be restored to it's existence at 'birth' is a brilliant portrayal.

 

We move through this life like some lovechild of a talisman and a pulsar, "luck" - or euphoria and pain - flickering on and off. At some point or points, both pulsating at once.

 

I hope you're feeling better today.

attitude, you

face it square

succumb to it

and stop living.

haha. Hey, what ever works, why ever it works. Maybe it's pyschological refocus, or a reminder that drives motivation to push through. Attitude in approach, as you're saying ; )

 

You're welcome for the well wishes, enjoy the weather : )

I'm stunned by the innovative

I'm stunned by the innovative way you address the "unshakable" nemesis. There's exasperation, yet also defiance and power in your voice. Absolutely brilliant!
