The winds shift and I catch the scent of you stalking within the tall grass of subconsciousness These days I'm not as agile as I used to be A lame and weary target for your infected thoughts I bolt and escape though, never unscathed You seldom fail to tear a piece from me I grow weary of these hunts And sometimes I am enclined to let these thoughts devour me [This message has been edited by Aenimal (12-07-2002 01:43 PM).] |

(big hugggsssssss) Sometimes the best way is to not run but try and sympathize with that which is hunting you and hope to get on its good side if it truly is a hunter! (sigh) What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, I send angel hugs of comfort your way, we all love youn so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Raphael, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I too enjoyed the metaphors and thought you could read this two ways, and when I got to thinking it was the hairy type of wolf, I remember the crocodile hunter saying to "puff yourself up and look huge", stand tall, still and firm, and all I could think of was - run for the hills, and funny enough that applies to both ways I read this LOL, enjoyed! |

Noah thank you sometimes I won my battles with my psyche, sometimes it gets the jump on me. In time i hope.. Mark I sometimes bolt, it's something i've learned to do over time, but sometimes i fear the damage is already too great to reverse Mysteria glad you liked it. I love the crocodile hunter, he's such a child and so innocent. I try Midnite I try.. Ethel thank you for always supporting me its much appreciated |

Enjoyed the read ... it's seldom, a good time, being stalked or hunted ~ Rex |
