Half Out Here, Half In There

I create from the liminal space between my conscious and subconscious mind
I help people work with themselves from this space.

Half In, Half Out

It makes it harder for me to understand the outer world.
I feel like I have a disability.
Some things simply don’t compute at all.

My grant writer finds this annoying.
I just don’t get it.
My marketing consultant realizes
she is dealing with a remedial case.

I am best half in, half out

Therefore I need allies on the outside
People to manage the pumps
Screw the tubes into the right sources
If I do it, I abandon what I am best at.
I leave the deep work and flounder on the surface.

I suck at it.

Gratitude to those who see my failings and offer help.
