I have been reborn, still-born to this world of babbling nonsnse. People place pictures on flashing glass globes. Visions of perfect non-persons tell their brothers & sisters they are not yet plastic and no good. I watch this, broken down see it for what it really is. Illusion, only colored lights placed in patterns for presentation. And Sally simply smiles at the sound of deceit. Begs for it. Drinks it down and consumes its lies until, in her, it becomes truth. She likes the ugly mask that hides her pretty face. She wants the heavy robes of men that pretend feminine is fake. >>>WE DO NOT EXIST<<< And because we are not real, you are not really reading this... ~Chrissy "No one has ever loved ~anyone~ the way ~everyone~ wants to be loved" ~Mignon McLaughlin~ [This message has been edited by AniKay83 (03-28-2002 11:52 PM).] |

Cool!!! I really liked this one... like you were an observer... the naration sounds displaced.... as if the reader were looking through your eyes as a sociological observer. I really enjoyed this write. It is sad that we women are forced to be less than ourselves to be viewed as the equals of men.... what does that say? Love, Light and Peace, Sherry Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. |

Thank you both for the great replies. Observation can sometimes be a taxing activity... "No one has ever loved ~anyone~ the way ~everyone~ wants to be loved" |
