well here it is, a full moon and I am alone again *chuckle* you reap what you sow, as they say I forgot to light a candle... I imagine it will be just as good tomorrow oh, you're hearing this dusty old cackle but I am fluttering a beautiful throaty laugh, a young toy women throw around in their youth. something largely unappreciated, I will tell you. for it is a laugh that makes or breaks a woman don't believe me? oh it's never that way with a man (unless his laugh-- *laugh* --is truly unbearable) but a woman could almost live or die on the way she breaks a smile. have another cookie. it will be a long time before you realize what I'm talking about. |

May I have a glass of milk with my cookie?? Interesting piece you have written here. Must give this some deeper thought! nice style and theme! dh A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Well it's been a long time and I've eaten all the cookies and I know what your talking about. love it. Joel. I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |

Hey, I remember the aunt! Are these real episodes, or do you invent them? I like the laugh theory, interesting one that ... I wish I had an inspiring aunt  Lotharingia "For God's sake, he's a poet. Poets are meant to feel miserable. Otherwise, what the hell are they here for? What are they going to write about?" Tom Holland |

Smile, thanks Lotharingia. She is kind of a fictional amalgam of several people, including the one I want to be when I grow up. This one was a little more scattered than I intended, but the Aunt kind of takes on a life of her own when I write her out. They aren't real episodes... yet. Give me about 40 years. |

i like the type of story line like a wise old woman telling a young kid about life but as much as she tells them they still won't understand until they get older great work i love it. I'm the lord, I'm the havoc, I'm the soul |

*scratches his head* I can't say I understood it all, but I liked it anyway. Keep up the excellent work. |
