Finding the door

"I've been dozing and dreaming too long in this place
what drew me here once has long gone without trace"


When I was a child I was fascinated by the story of Rapunzel, about a girl kept prisoner in a tower by a wicked witch.

I associated with many elements in the story at the time, but when I look back over my life I have found too many actual recurrences of being closed away in a tower (buildings, relationships, jobs) looking out at the world in a dazed state, but not knowing where to find the door.

Well enough's enough ...and I have done 'enough' impossible things in the last few months, to state my intention of 'vacating the premises' - home, wherever or whatever you are, I'm on my way.
