Oh this is a painful thing rings of saturn gasping in jetson dancing rosie sings in the flat notes afterall sticking to my face and rings are not marriages... I wish I had a screen appear a flat panel dvd sharp the shadows of the me wishing me absurd and dreams are vivid in the afterall... I dream I am a simple thing: leaving shadows in the sand soft, so soft, the footstep fall, and filling in the drift of foot, as small, as tall remembering lingering in reprimand; filling in the dreams I dreamt watering the waterfall with the castles of the walls dancing dust between my toes... "Oh, It is a painful thing..." I toss dollars to the queen of a lean lost lingering praising my malingering skinny girls with wide brown eyes underlined by Maybelline-- tell her to shaddup. |

lingering in reprimand; filling in the dreams I dreamt watering the waterfall with the castles of the walls dancing dust between my toes self controlled wit, quietly & largely defined by pristine maturity...setting humor while the crueler side of laughter shakes you up, then sets you down...only smiling, a wrily smerck, as if you say, dahhhling....? only you could mezmorize the mind's eye.... hugs... |

Well I just hate some aspects of summer! All those bikini-clad brown bodies each one leaner, and meaner than the last. Under my breath I say, "I hope you trip!"  Although I consider myself to be in shape for my age, there are some things you just have to "let go" yanno?  It's nice to remember though isn't it? |

It's been a year so far, huh? We may be taking up a different kind of space, but we are still here and being heared by those that know and those that understand... You know about the good days and the oh so bad days... and no matter what kind of space I am taking up I'm glad I am because I'm still here and there are things to be done. With that said...I got my daughters copy of Victoria's swimsuit catalog...not a good time for me to be reminded of some things...and I felt it my duty not to subject my DH to said catalog...no need for him to see what he's missing right?? Dang...I just wanna feed those girls donuts and pizza.Love you muchly Karen. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

I wrote this remembering being a kid, and playing with my shadow. Now my shadow plays with me. Karma...is an itch?  Thanks for reading--  |

At least your shadow still plays. *G* Mine moves ever more slowly. *S* remembering lingering in reprimand; filling in the dreams I dreamt watering the waterfall with the castles of the walls dancing dust between my toes... I love this! *S* |
