On the street where I live there’s no runaway deal and the price rises up, up, up, into the more not bargained for with the knowing of worth and value. Life takes the stuffing, the cherry on top, half the filling out of the giving, and bespeaks of learning to live with less than ever before but empty rooms know how deep the soul goes to bring up the asked for price. Sometimes it loiters in memory awaiting a smash and grab but mostly the wanting of more pays up with the bowing out. Happily so it’s a seesaw in soul always up when I need to pay and I keep the rhythm so, just so, to not ever a borrower be. The want and the need of more bows to the force of conformity and pays a risen up price for the living with less than the heart knows is best! Helen / 15 August 2007 |

Thank you all so much for reading and for commenting. Yes, LeeJ, too many streets, far too many, and I can't even change mine let alone the million others. |
