I think i was going to write a poem about me, but i am more or less combinations of people i see. I have a little of a Donovan dreamer, but a little of a my grandma's sensible demeanor. I am a strong & stubborn woman with my decisions & all, other times i'm more than prone to bawl. I'm kind,but oh so cruel, learned,but still in school. Isn't it funny how we all have so many colors to our personality??¿ We all contradict ourselves with a strange,yet simple reality. We each hold a peice of another in our hand, we each travel in the same,but distant devided land. I'm a traveler,yes i travel, over deserts of sand and bars of gravel. I must admit,i'm now bound to one place, if i could i'd pack my bags,be gone for days. If i had it my way,i'd live with nothing & nowhere, travel around the world without an earthly care. In the meantime,i'll be content to not go far, but i'll travel in my mind to places that are. I've gone to a million strange places in my head, countless foreign paths i've often tread. Sometimes i'm a gypsy,traveling an open range, sometimes i'm a lost Alice in a Wonderland,strange. Often a wandering nomad over desert plains, looking for an oasis,waiting for the rains. I play the part of a princess from India,perhaps & often i'm just a girl in a world ready to collapse.... but,put simply.....i'm bits of everything put together,a pyschological frankenstein of sorts =P And there she weaves by night and day, a magic web of colours gay.~Tennyson |

This is wonderful! I get that traveling bug too! Traveling in the imagination is the next best thing! I like also how you have portrayed us all as pieces of others...so true! Denise |

We are complex beings for sure. There isn't one of us that is merely one personality and our imaginations allow us to travel to distant places different people. I like this. ...Give me the strength to walk the soft earth, a relative to all that is.... Black Eagle Oglala Sioux holy man |

Nice work Swampie! I think I've seen you on some of those mind journeys. I like the "colors of your personality". Good job! |

All too often, because my name is Alicia, I am called Alice in Wonderland. Not at all as fun as it sounds! Alicia A. Renzelman |
