A Collision of Images

Update: Still NO temporal lobe seizure & we're almost at 4 days. Not even a hint, which is beyond "swell" (such a funny word from childhood).

BUT am starting to really be affected by visual distortions, aura migraine influenced. On my dusky walk with my little LeNoira June, I noticed outlines of tree lines staying in my eyes when turning my head causing a collision of images. It manifests such a crazy, convoluted scene. Of course, it plays with one's equilibrium & forces me to concentrate on balance.

Then something brand new struck me: the far sky at the end of the country road became distorted by a magnificent starburst shape reminding me of a sea star in the Pacific. It's colors match the sky & clouds, while obscuring those for several seconds. In time I could once more see the usual shadow & light upon the clouds returned.

I walked immediately back home to the comforting air-conditioning & drank a glass full of Emergen-C.

Better now.
