The winds shift and I catch the scent of you stalking 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 inclined to let these thoughts devour me ____________________________________________________ *Looking over some of my intitial posts and actually really liked this one hope you do to* FREE INKEDGODDESS NOW [This message has been edited by Aenimal (04-27-2003 02:44 AM).] |

Seems like you're talking about memories that won't leave you alone no matter how far back you put them. Of course this could have a lot of other meanings. I love it because it makes me think of more than one side. Enjoyed You could hurt me with your bare hands. You could hurt me using the sharp edge of what you say. JEWEL |

heheheh @ Dixie up there and NO silly - I didnt mean you are lame and weary - I meant that as an underground thing . . . Your write - (you had me all distracted earlier) relays to me that you are strong and refuse to put up with that "feel" of the lameness and weary . . . even though most days it tires you so to fight . . . xxoo "ALL WE ARE SAYING . . . IS GIVE INKED A CHANCE . . . " [This message has been edited by littlewing (04-27-2003 05:50 AM).] |

Some thoughts of others seem to prey upon anothers .... such as INKED, actions create reactions. Moving words, both post and statement. |

Raph, Like the poem and can relate...every so often there is one who would and can do this to me, but I know the motive behind it...and sometimes I do have to listen. Intent and wisdom, everything. But this is now, and when this was then (far past) it hurt and not having an understanding of myself, I took it personally... Great poem! BTW: She'll be back. A two-month expulsion..Have you e-mailed her? I have and I know she'd like to hear from all here....course she'll see this and the other one... Hugs, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Hey Raphy, for some reason, I missed the (RPfrom #23), but I went looking for it in Open 23 archive....goofy me ....not thinking that RP meant repost. Anyway, I finally figured out that it was in this forum, so I just read it. And, lookey here what I found..... 7 posted 04-21-2003 01:53 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honeybee you're much too kind, I really appreciate it. My writing hasn't been that strong lately, at least in my mind. Ethel and Sue are sure to yell at me for saying that now. . . Yep, I saw that Sue did there, but I'm a little late. Now, you know that's a , now don't you? You know that I know you are a very good writer and have a way of getting your point across like no-one else I know.....just like here. . . And, BTW, Sue and I aren't really yelling...just giving you some nudges and encouragement. Do you know why? Of course you do...it's because you are a very talented poet, dear friend!!! Hugs to you, dear poet Raphael Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (04-27-2003 02:58 PM).] |

Thanks Dixie Sue I sometimes feel hunted by thoughts and moods that I'd rather be free of. But there are times when I'm just to tired and let them take me..this however is on a grander scale. Ctowen the write and the freedom slogan are completely seperate entities but I'm glad she is missed Pat thank you for replying. In the end the choice is ours how we let the thoughts, words of others affect us. many negative and damaging words remain engrained and they're hard to escape. Thanks you Seymour appreciate it Ethel you're a sweetheart and I know you and Sue and others are supportive, sometimes though I really believe something stinks or that I'm not into my writing as I could be and it frustrates me so I attack myself Abbracci Margherita thank you for reading as always and keep those wings clean lol Thanks Sue, you know rereading this I found it open to a few new interpretations of my own how about that.. |
