Shove, shove, shove.
It feels like shoveling, but my cement solid thoughts are incomparable to the lucid nature of snow. Yet, the way they collaborate, combine, and collect my attention as they tumble around precisely replicates the snowball effect.

In the way Ms. walked away from her mug, allowing the herbs to boil, burn, and infuse their flavor. We must detach ourselves to understand the logic behind it. However, feelings are a matter of the heart; if they say matter can not be created or destroyed, perhaps there is no way to dismantle this inner commotion. No plausible way because all of it has choked the roots of my wits from the start. And although my mind sped ahead long before they announced, “go!” my feelings are lagging behind. Tripping me with thoughts of, what if?
