A spiral cone of silence, threatens to deafen me. All alone, I feel crowded. Oppressed by my very freedom, I decline to choose, yet that is my choice. Blinded by feelings, I may never understand. I see a whirling pool of confusion, roiling beneath my feet. It tries to pull me under, to make my control of nothing, whither away... Into the final emptiness, of everything pure. ------------------ Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll be among the stars. -Unknown- So let the sun beat down upon my face, It's warmth will dry my tears. |

smile... that juxtaposition of polarities, so delicately precise (good description of your work, btw--delicately precise) (Didn't you write a double Helix too?) "Oppressed by my very freedom, I decline to choose, yet that is my choice." nodding I remember somebody telling me once that not choosing was a choice in itself.  (Seems like "somebody" learned from experience, huh?) *hugs you* I thought I'd look for archive treasure, and seeking, I have found. *smile* |
