So I am naked laced waiting in hallways for leaves to turn for weightless falling and it would seem to one like you that feet first into dampness was not enough. That the thick curl of overgrowth the twist of rooted sin (life once, really) the breath of moss across the seams of time could never be found in a half winter morning. This solid earth in tow now my grazed eyes in stain insist on licking moist every cracking leaf half turned. And I attempt tomorrow in the lacing swing feathered arms around the base and know wait witness to a change that tends to strangle to ever knot and sew the smallest secrets in me. |

 (big hugggsssssss) This is a powerfully heartfelt write, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you in faith soon you will lace together all you hope to and your secrets will be spoken with clarity and comfort! (sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Alicia, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you!

Alicia I could feel the weight of waiting ...the length it takes for one breath, too long and this: "insist on licking moist every cracking leaf half turned." You always take me with you into such a deep place where your writing comes from, and I feel, even if I can't explain. |

Defoliation tends to bare all pretense. Enjoy this most colorful time of year and land oh so softly. While your writes are heavy you alight a sweet whisper. |

Such simple complexity... with strength of image and feel... an honor to read. |

~What a worn release from me, I know I've bled this way before,...so gosh, thank you folks for reading, feeling and touching the page on your way out. You're comments are appreciated. (and I have a good feeling that I'll be able to embrace what's coming with a whole lot more strength and open eye than last)(I see the beauty, feel the shawl of wind, gosh, hear the change and am awed,...the time just pulls me places regardless). *Peace and warmth. |

Heh Alicia, powerfully written. I am taking this one out to the porch to read a few more times. Battle not with monsters lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. - Friedrich W. Nietzsche |

I've found that there's never really a stitch that can stop the bleeding sometimes. . . peace you. . . --------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
