Ebb and Flow
Exposed by the ebbing tide, vulnerable in the blackness: the mind flat. Conscious, ravenous in the dark, emerges from its subterranean nest, and begins to rifle and sift through the grains, hunting for: deepest, libidinous, worrisome, scrumptious, and sumptuous thoughts. Over-examining each morsel in the dark, moonbeams reflected in squinting eyes. Slowly savouring each mouthful, a member of the slow food club. Until, zing exhausted, the thought is balled and discarded, but only until the next ebb.

Too deep for my small brain but it sounds cool.
I suck each aniseed whim down to the centre. No crunching. OE
This reminds me of going to sleep. In the dark with no distractions from a chattering mind, no choice but to "rifle and sift through the grains" and over-examine "each morsel in the dark, moonbeams reflected in squinting eyes".
Speaking of sleep, I should probably engage in some now.
Lovely writing.
MT, as long as it sounds cool.
OE, I try so hard not to, but I always crunch, I have no self control.
Camille, exactly and thank you.
