When your nail cleaner is held between teeth in a Tiger's mouth you can appreciate the desire to lie back for those back two feet's effort

The old man would do it but some things a woman has to do for herself and this was peaceful although she knew she would return and become herself.

Bodger or Dave or whatever


The poetry

O'h she enchanting and enchanted
Born from the cauldron's son
Tossed in images darkening and lightening in burning of spirit and demands

That traced to a darken night when a call came too late and was meant to

A woman betrayed who would have given her life for the man who sacrificed his before he was taken

To a daughter and son and a third being of mythical, physical and animal within one image

To seek
To defend
To know

I had to laugh at that tiger/nail clipper imagery Dave, though the overall write feels like an opening of a Pandora's box.
BTW, as an aside...I like the poetic reply you gave Huan on his Hanshan piece.

Pandora's box was opened a long time ago

In time but it is still of Eagle Woman, Stomach Woman and Tiger Woman

That are all themes and almost at times the second set of books I will try to write.

Standy, Jump and 'Where is the bloody parachute' should be the first.

Tiger Woman is the third and maybe the fourth still in my mind - but as you allow thoughts to mature and experience what you feel that would, of whatever sex, experience which you do in ignorance

You perhaps look at things differently

Time I hit the road I am late for doing so

When the ride to and from is behind you
we will find our patience, in time,
to anticipation.
