i am pondering, now
the validity of the phrase
“hearts can’t be blasted open”

if you are detrition
or explosion

and how i am slowly building
brick by brick
a dam to close this sea

Well this is short...amazing how one can say a lot sometimes without words..or with just a few. Hey...this is my 6666 post..does that make me part devil-girl?

Hugs, howpeculiar, somehow - I think you need them..

perfect, powerful, and hugs... ~smile~ much more than i'd have ever expected from this small scraping. thank you all, be well.


K: I don't think so, but 666 is the combo on my bike chain; perhaps we are both luscious demon-damsels, irresistible to creatures of flesh and phantom, repellent to 1.5 ton vehicles.

We even open doors for the males of the species... oh, well nm, I guess that statement does it: we are of the dark powers, presuming we can open door handles ourselves and such.

Excuse me, I must go faint and redeem myself.

whatever the means or whichever is the most damaging-- the dam is the important thing now.

this one made me think too much.

The flood...does it need to be channeled, or could it just create a new landscape?  A poem of thought, yours and mine.  Thank you.
