Hamster in a metal cage 'round and 'round I race outpaced trying to get off this county fair merry-go-round lift me up and set me down softly please? I paid my fair for this sacred space From this day forward I will walk twice behind It's ok, really I like to rewind or is that unwind? Either way I cant escape your face the memories invade even if I push and pull them away Tough to dispel myself that woman I once knew well See Tima's challenge: /pip/Forum29/HTML/001459.html |

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Your writing is just so absolutely phenominal, Sue... You need to let the rest of the world in on PIP's little secret, and publish as many of these as you can. We see the light of those |

"I paid my fair for this sacred space" Was this an accident? Fair, instead of fare. Because it adds a very interesting layer to the entire write. And? You want help doing.....what? lol It's a beauty, Susie Ed |

Wow, Sue...you did a great job on this. You took that simple phrase and just ran with it, and I love what you came up with. Wonderfully done, my friend.  Hugs ~Vicky "My friends are my estate." |

Yep, even if you vault off the ride, you're still dizzy for a while afterward....hook your fingers through the fence and hang on until it passes....then go have cotton candy and three hot dogs with sauce and a root beer, to celebrate your newly settled innards..... ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

I paid my fair for this sacred space Yes, Sue, sometimes we want to just stay in that space for awhile....that we have paid our "fair" for. I understand.  Hugs  Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (07-28-2003 09:41 AM).] |
