04.14.03 - 10:10 am kate, not katherine. "Come on back, Katherine,"
he says, stethoscope dangling around his neck, limp and dead; "Come on back and we'll see just what's wrong with your brain." and i follow, though my name is not Katherine, no, it never was, not unless Mother was angry. But I say nothing and follow, head bowed and silent. I wait for the questions that always come; did i think of the darkness? Of the vivid red lines that once stained my left forearm with long slender scars that faded from my skin but never from my head? "Come on back, Katherine," he says, "right into this office; you can have a seat and make yourself at home." he leaves and returns with a cup of hot coffee that burns my tongue. I tongue the burn, reminded by this small pain that i am real. "Sometimes, I forget," I tell him, and he snatches my words out of the air and puts them down onto paper in the unkempt writing of one who went to medical school. -------------------------- this isn't done yet. i want to make it more little red riding hood like, but that can be done when i get home from work later. this is (sort of) about my many trips to the therapist. though i've always had a female one. |
