Unfolding I wander in this night It’s so rare that I speak that I dare these words these meanings these longings... My chaos of thought my ordered world of fear the once restless voice of my muse, who dares to desert me a whimpered whisper now. I demand its attention there’s no romance tonight a sonnet I have not those fourteen lines I crave and no final couplet written, for my lack of you... Am I now the writer of once, or was, a genius of nothing in the glory of silent pages the author of invisible ink my book of empty poems a colossal work a colossal work There is a roaring sound advancing in the tides of the sea in the recesses of a mind and in this fog I await it these waves of words that will sail you to me... and a new story will unfold.

Have you seen the movie "Adaptation"? As I read what you have wrote I think of Nic Cage's character struggling, struggling, to find the write mix of words he has in his mind. That's what I picture. As you think, and think some more, the final picture of what you're trying to say slowly comes into focus. Excellent! |

![]() (smiles) And as all the new words spew out on the shores, all it takes is putting them together as every ebb has a tendency to give us all we need but just shake it all up like a Yahtzee cup! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
