So lives a woman now in the throes of vacillation not weightless but yet floating in the air of indecision. She balances a moment – just on thermal waves of money lust but like a brick plummets to earth and crash lands in the summer lands of soul’s innate desire. The air screams, “Money, money” and she knows to humbly bow but how the back stiffens up and she becomes immobile stuck like a stalwart defender of herself. She throws the dice; no hearts but spades to dig an early grave and bury all her needs, desires, in a cold unfeeling place. So shuffles she from rich to poor like a woman born to swivel until an “Ah-Ha” moment changes her lifestyle and brings from smart the casual designer wear of soul. Money! Money! Money! She’s deaf though, don’t you know? Helen / 15 February 2009 |

Thanks Margherita and Linda. Sadly "the woman" opted for The Money! I think she thinks it's necessary to pay her own way... HA! to heaven!  Helen |
