Lol... I wrote an "ugly" poem a month ago or so. I was writing about how easy it is to face the world once you've resigned yourself to just being ugly... I'll try to dig it up for you. Michael |

But she is not ugly! she is dangerously beautiful (if you get my drift ) her outhouse is brick. She feels ugly on the inside and needs lots of the wrong kind of attention to feel "good" We are working on it. She is tenderhearted and it is hard to watch her go through it. |

Oh I got that, Lori. I wasn't speaking of a physical ugliness at all. That you are working with her is more than some like her will ever have until well into adulthood... when that self-image is so deeply seared into their consciousness they may never see past it. Thus being resigned to it. Michael |

Nice write, kid-o!! My dad once told me not to let anyone say I was an ugly duckling, He said: "You're not, you're Daffy Duck..." Enjoyed the write. JL Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |
