my spectacular aura

I drove home in the dark and decided to make the most of my migraine.

I marvelled at the way objects disappeared, reappeared and rearranged themselves around me every few seconds. I made note of the lightning flashing at the edge of my vision, the silent aurora borealis burning across the sky and visible only to me. A light show, a kaleidoscope, a galaxy of swirling fires.

And a storm is assaulting my house. I'm safe, but I feel threatened. I won't be sleeping tonight.
