belonging, i did not ask for this, and the black cat

bipolar without question, i question belonging.
is this the appropriate context? am in the right setting?

you post about your life. i post my puzzling thoughts.
you share valuable information, i obfuscate reality (disinformation as survival instinct?)

you write matter-offactly, conversationally. my words fight each other for form, jockey for function.

you write in english, i write in tongues.

i desire to post plainly, but technical terms, obscure metaphors, incomprehensible similes, unintelligible txandiisms...

two minutes and thirty three seconds in my psyche, follow. pay particular attention to the devolvement of thought. refer to the comments for additional insight

gato es negro. (so i lived in España, that is why i know...)
le chat est noir. (this, i just know, do not know how...)
die katze ist schwarz. (i lived in Deutschland too...i still get der-die-das confused, though)
black as night, the cat is. ( o - k - a - y )
the cat, its shadow, one. (this is taking a life of its own)
the feline's pigmentation, obscure as its demeanor. ("whatever you say, dear")
vortex of night, total eclipse, projections onto the cat's fur. (total left field)

why can i not simply write simply?

do i help? does this help? do i need help? do I belong?

may be you do not want us to understand. at some level, we do understand what you write.

but i can tell you, some cannot write simple cos they download their thoughts to their blogs instead of translating/processing. Its not bad. some people write for support and some for themselves.

there is utter confusion in my mind. so much that it actually hurts. its a storm. i do not know what to do. we all have our moments like these. but whats important is that we ride the storm, safely. i keep telling myself, its not the first time and that i have survived the one before. that gives me strength.

I absolutely LOVE the way you write. Don't change a thing. It's images of mystery, artistic beauty, and poetic thoughts.

hi txandi. i agree with jon (as usual) don't change for anyone (but yourself. evolve (if you must). explain (if you want). yes/yes/help is good/sure. take care (always). p.s. i climbed out of the peanut butter and am done with the food metaphors (for now(.
