Bottles, Tubes, and Compacts scattered on the vanity Vanity of my Life A cylinder of red painted Jezebel lips Enticing unsuspecting prey Greasy white, Blue ball nose brought enchanted laughter Antics of silliness Vials of saline shed crocodile tears Sorrow for naught Mirror, Mirror reflecting your empty grin An empty canvas... Who shall I be today? Sheila [This message has been edited by firecrakker (edited 11-30-2000).] |

Wow, I really like this! Hey, I hope you haven't forgot about me I normally don't read many in here, but I felt drawn to this one. Would like to talk about it some time!!!Jeremy "Those little slices of death, how I loathe them." -Edgar Allen Poe |

Shelia....I just love reading your postings. This one has such deep meaning. "Who shall I be today?" Aren't we all remaking ourselves each day to accommodate people, places, things in our lives? Very well done. Hardrock |

It's almost easier that way. To dress up and pretend to be someone you're not. That way you can act however you want and look like you wouldn't and it's like, hmmm. It's like you don't have to be cautious of being YOU! Joy |
