Day 21-- Acrostic (The first letters of each line, taken together, spell out a message!)
Glorious profusion of wilderness
Orange flash of gulmohur trees
Ducks dawdling in the lake beyond
I idly gaze at this immensity
Standing with the wind billowing around me
Deer in the park, nibbling at grass
Elephants with trunks majestically swaying
Alice Walker's god lay in no church nor temple
Death of religion, let's embrace a purple vision.
Day 22-- Free Writing (thoughts in the state between dreaming and waking)
Nightmarish Life
Burning fires, strange creatures
Random men putting something
on my face.
Familiar surroundings turn hostile
Known people turn away
Arbitrary groups ridiculing me
mocking, mauling, harassing me
rape, thefts, accidents, and other
god forsaken things
Scared of the future
Guilt in the present
The world becomes a malignant,
threatening place.

Nightmarish Life is quite deep. It really contains all the fears in a visceral way.
