yup, I’m a priceless baboon. I suppose. happily watching the mermaids play. what else can a monkey do? heavy with the crap she had swallowed and fortunate that she hadn’t made it to the top first she’d rather be known as a baboon than…… a whore? there’s no forgetting how her hair became hissing serpents; how a once young beautiful woman becomes a nasty mother- - she is all that she waits for nightfall, so that her eyes do not see and her tongue does not taste the birth of fish’s tail upon the salt wind in which she let herself be touched long ago over the rolling rocks of the lighthouse wrapped in maritime night where legends were wetted by milk-like lips and drowned by jilted brides "I can't believe I've lost the very best of me" Natalie Merchant [This message has been edited by Dark Angel (01-02-2004 10:34 PM).] |

The depth...of the write, and of the seas... spill over. Well done, Maree. |

 (big angel hugs) Yay! This is such a wonderfully powerful saga, sweet friend, such agony, regret and passion filling this chapter, waiting for the waves to rejuvenate! (smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, I send koala hugs down under your way, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Maree, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |
