black dog

When the Black Dog bites, deep dark doubt drips into the mind, colouring thoughts and influencing feelings. Forward progress is difficult as would be squeezing through thick felt and black treacle. Reason has turned traitor and presents this dark reality as the only truth. The fragile infrastructure of creativity is undermined and scatters like a house of cards in a hurricane.

Confidence is on trial and the Black Dog sits in judgement with the black silk square on its head. The defence is weak, the evidence seems stacked against me. But the witnesses for the prosecution don’t show. The Black Dog sums up with all its nullity and the jury, after three days of deliberation, indecision and doubt, finally brings in a verdict of: not guilty!

There just remains all the cards to pick up.

Flux level: low, rising slowly, continued difficult; expected fair by one eight double oh tomorrow.
