The call of intent |

Down at the root of inception in the deep and dark underground love spirals and sinks and turns away from the call of intent. Loud, too loud, the ears shut down but the hum in the way of all hums carries the tune of what should be done along every step of the way. No skip and jump can clear the hump of unending procrastination and love in this slump a blight on the smooth movement of life. Intention and deed like spice in a stew; eat and be satisfied or suck on a thumb after twiddling is done and fade into the lost forgotten. Love spirals and sinks and turns; one day intent will be heard and the weapons of soul destruction will implode with the force of action. One day, one day; there’s no stew today because I’m not cooking for you! Helen / 5 June 2007 |

Helen~ I REALLY like the zinger of 'suck on a thumb after twiddling is done' Let's this baby up to the top~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
