What he's saying This is what I never understood He contradicts what he does not condone Clashing words in black and white And now that I've had all I can stand I lie down with a broken heart Consuming all my time and energy In the act of deception Until my eyes show less emotion Than a porcelain doll collection November 3rd 2009 Emily Shives |

Beautiful and fragile piece of poetry, Emily: as delicate as the doll of the title. Fine and poignant writing. Namaste Jim "We are stardust: we are golden: and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden." --Joni Mitchell "Woodstock" |

I collect porceline dolls, and I can certainly see where the perception of lifelessness(is that a word?) comes from. A touching piece, to be sure. Goddess grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference. |
