When I read the words announcing that you had taken your life I couldn’t help thinking that the game you have always played Was still afoot And that the writer of that missive Was you Costumed in yet another fiction A fiction bearing falsehoods How then does one react to the supposed passing of a hand-crafted creature? And how then could you expect me to mourn the demise of someone that never existed? On what make-believe grave should I place this imaginary stone? And what name should be carved there? (R.I.P. Dea Di Amore Heather Brenda Raffaela Kristin et al) |

Ouch is right, but probably very true too. If one crys wolf too often, well, it results in this yes? |

and now... you can rest in peace buddy with your arm slung around the snows of Buffalo and a fresh pile of towels avoiding the smirking gaze of a "Do Not Disturb" sign |

Kacy? She (or someone) sent me an Email stating that she had taken her own life in Normandy...But she'd been so deceitful, for so very long that I can't believe anything that concerns her. It would be awful it it were true, but? |

I'm trying to control my tongue here. (okay, I'm trying to control my fingers--I tried typing with my tongue once, the keyboard tasted bad) fingers--tongue, both are beyond my authority! I'll just add a R.I.P. for her, Ed? How's that? Love you m'yeti...and twinkle eyes at Sue... Was that great self control or what??? |

And that the writer of that missive Was you Costumed in yet another fiction A fiction bearing falsehoods ~*~ Sadly, I understand it all. |
