(ir)(rational)

written by: Alyssa Brocker

@Atelgy

for me there’s always been a

fine line

be tween
Rational
&
Irrational

thoughts

most of the time
I can recognize the
difference

most of the time

rational & irrational

stay in their
place

(but)

my anxiety likes those thoughts
together

rationalirrationalrationalirrational

they run together
confusing me
until my head is
pounding
&
I don’t know whether to
scream,
cry,
or lie down on my
bathroom floor
&
never get up again
&
FUCK

I just want all this thinking to

stop.

Tim Law

Timothy Law is a writer of fantasy, horror, detective and general fiction from a little town in Southern Australia called Murray Bridge. Tim is a happily married father of three children, and adopted father of four cats and a rabbit. Currently working at the Murray Bridge Library in the role of Library Manager he has dreamed since his early high school years of becoming a fulltime author. Working for a library, surrounded by so many wonderful authors it is difficult not to be inspired to write. Tim has always had a vivid imagination, encouraged by his mom to dream big. He wrote his first story aged eight years, a children’s book about a bunyip and his friends. In 2018 Tim published his first novel, The Eleventh Tome. Many of his short stories and general musings can be found on his blog - There Are Some Who Call Me... Tim!
