WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a dual point-of-view scene in which the right part of the brain and the left are disagreeing about a topic.

Think about the characteristics associated with each side.

Right Mind

In the lift

It’s up or down

Heaven or earth.

Not left nor right

Logic or magic?


A sideways shift

Haunts me to unease

Strings pulling.

Hydraulic machine

Man of metal.


And yet I want it

When it comes

That limbic call.

Beating hums 

Heart on the brink.


_Which part should I follow? Chest in mouth or eyes to reason? Both offer meaning but neither one alone captures it, that feeling. Words, images, light and expression, constructing reality but I’m failing here. Confliction._
