Two Dimensions
I was there sitting in class when I had a severe headache it felt as if I were in two dimensions straddling between them. In one dimension I was in class with a severe headache not thinking about anything but the fact that my headache might turn into major migraine. But in the other dimension I was in the battle of my lifetime, the Civil War. I had just gotten shot in the leg everyone crowding around me my eyes so blurred I did not even notice my best friend. I felt woozy with the led ball wedged into my knee. The pain was horrid I couldn’t stand it but I wanted to make sure my ma knew I was here lying in the grass that felt as sharp as a knife about to die.
When my pain went a way I was in a different dimension, at school, 10 years old in fifth grade staring off into space my best friend nudging me telling me I was daydreaming but I couldn’t believe her it had felt so real, my ma not being there to help me made me almost cry, and the pain, the blood rushing down my shin it had all felt so real it made me think god sent me there to realize something special something I needed to know.
