Lost Within the Trees

Brian Looney

    Strings of laughter, flowing outward, beams and things. A tugging smile, contrived at first, but then it burns so well. And I’m casting them, far and wide, until they hook, until they tighten.

    Let them pull me. No need to turn the reel, just set the lock in place. Gentle visions, dreary and repeated, a slurring blend. Pulled along by strings of laughter, and I forgot to smile.

    I guess I get sidetracked, inflamed, but that quiet voice just calls too often. Listening is the hardest part; there are divers others on the road. I’m looking for a thrill; I’m looking for enchantment.

    Strings of laughter, thin and fake, but then they were all slack, like weary creatures out of breath. But then I’m downed, addled, lost within the trees.
