Inspiration is something that starts with someone else's story, ends with your own, and has a blurry line in between.

There is something in the air of December
That is detestable
A sort of formidable kindness
That forces the muscles to
Contract and r e l e a s e
Desperately grasping at
Any sliver of comfort
Any hope of fertility or sanctity
In the raw, violating, relentless winds
Carrying the scent of corrosive prayer and conditional bliss.
