A Requiem for a Nightmare in Waiting

by Philip Tinkler

I write invisible words for an imaginary muse. The heart of writing is open-mind surgery. My patient asks for something romantic, as if I'm a pharmacy dispensing nuggets to nullify neurosis. I could be more. I could be this. When my silence screams, I whisper unheard thoughts fought in fallen forts.
