Sanity



the world’s fallen apart again
or at least, I think
it has
but I cannot be sure
there are times
I don’t trust my brain
anymore
(but i tell myself i’m sane enough
to admit it)
i know
i have said it before
but this time it is real
swear it
you see! the this is linked
to the that, and if you connect
point a with dot b…
and look!
what I found on the internet!
it all adds up
can’t you see?
can’t you see?
no?
why?
oh.
hearing you state it
like that, I know you are right
rational, calm
talking a problem through
like the adults we are supposed to be
but my mind… it’s a
masochist
likes to drag itself
repeatedly over the
fishhook
and barbed wire called knowledge
scarring
then scaring itself
to conclusions
learning and linking
faster and faster
til I am bleeding out
all over
the people around me.
I am sorry.
I didn’t mean to bother you.

A Family Murder in the Colombian Jungle;

A Family Murder in the Colombian Jungle; How the surrender of the FARC helped bring closure to a mystery Santa Marta | Stefanen Ator/Public Domain/Flickr Here is what I know for sure: Nearly 10 years ago, my aunt Adita was kidnapped from her home one morning in Santa Marta, a beach town on Colombia ’s Caribbean coast. Hours after her disappearance, she was found dead on the side of a dusty road in the nearby Sierra Nevada mountains. The violent murder of Adita Perez is one shrouded in mystery. Her kidnappers were mysteriously killed before questioning and no one was ever charged with her death. Some say she was killed on the side of the road and then set aflame (a gruesome version of the story I had grown up with). Others say Adita was killed in her home, rolled up in a carpet and dumped in the mountains. The theories surrounding  why  she was murdered are even more nuanced.
