Dark Angel Dream It is the last full day Of my Australia tour. Today they take me to visit The Australian centre for deaf-blind children. We drive, listening to the car radio. The radio stations sound like ours … News and traffic, Weather and sports … Gossip and games. We arrive at the center for deaf-blind children. And then Dark Angel comes. It seems she has arranged the visit. I wonder how I will communicate with them. I suppose they don’t use ASL. Then a boy comes up, Talks to me in perfect Spanish. I think: What? … Spanish … in Australia? I decide to impress another boy By telling him I’m from the USA. He says: Fooey. He says: We read about you in our studies. I’m resigned, I guess, That not everybody likes us. I wanted to ride a kangaroo, Maybe feel some duckbill platipi, More mysterious Auzie things, But it is time to go … Sleep, And let some of that unconscious stuff Come bubbling to the surface. Let the archetypal inspiratrix speak. You never know what she will show you next. Revere and love and honor her, For she is the endless wellspring Of your creativity; She is the everlasting fountain Of your dreams. Jaime My boomerang won’t come back. Charlie Drake |

Jaime~ You transport the reader to a realm we could not have reached without your word-map~ 'Sleep, And let some of that unconscious stuff Come bubbling to the surface. Let the archetypal inspiratrix speak. You never know what she will show you next. Revere and love and honor her, For she is the endless wellspring Of your creativity; She is the everlasting fountain Of your dreams.' How lovely ... creatively originality ... such talent you possess ... thank you for sharing~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
