  • No Reason

    September 5, 2010

    • September 5     No Reason   Reason falls through, where it lands is a place of unknown seascape and unrelenting tides.  The roar in my ears furthers the disorienting effect of relocation.  At first it seems easier to let go of reason but when I descend into madness I scramble for purchase; looking for sanity like a cleft in a cliff.  Loss of skin and blood is nothing to ...

  • The Naked Not the Dead

    September 4, 2010

    • September 4       The Naked Not the Dead     Because comfort is sometimes no comfort I can shave my hair and walk bare in the naked world.  Removing pretense helps in unexpected ways.  Foolish action becomes formulaic when you are scared or hurt.  I lived through the summers of blood; the winter is not enough to stem the tide or heal the wound.  I have no want ...

  • Where's Your Chair?

    September 3, 2010

    • September 3         Where’s Your Chair?     Is the ring more unnatural for the tamer or the lion?  One the trapped, the other the trapper.  Who is the more in danger; the one with loss of freedom or the one with possible loss of life?  And while this question is still in play the next question is begged.  Why is there a ring?  What is worth the price ...

  • Here Kitty Kitty

    September 2, 2010

    • September 2       Here Kitty Kitty     Litter training the lynx seems like a good idea until it is accomplished and all concerned are less for the accomplishment.  Domesticity is a transparent cage, which has a presence felt by all whether loved or hated.  The air is changed and the cat stifles, everyone is safer, so it is said, but what are we safer from?  And ...

  • Shadow of Doubt

    September 1, 2010

    • September 1           Shadow of Doubt     The long dark cast covers my face, my thoughts, my life; it is the light blocked by my skepticism.  To tear down the obstruction means a profound change of my internal architecture; walls will have to be knocked down, windows installed.  The poor mouthed structure takes better to the steamroller than I wish it ...

Comments I've Written

  • How insightful of you!

    Yes, Leslie, it sure was a step by step process. It has taken my time and incredibly hard work to get where I am now, but every bit of it was worth it.

  • Thank you, yes!

     

    Hi Leslie,

     

  • I am so delighted!

    Sharon, Thank you. I live in the part of New Jersey where there are many cows and they have a great impact on me.

  • The Power of the Truth

    Thank you for sharing the truth and identity of Ophelia with me.  It is in actual fact far more tragic than it appears in the play.

  • Sharon, thank you

    It was a time of breathtaking pain and the only think I knew to do was write. Looking back I don't know how I would have survived it had I not written my way through.
