I suppose you needed me crying "keep me all together" Did you hear me beg reprieve? "nothing same can last forever"? True--I've been a constancy a circle just beyond your reach talk-talk wasted talk-talk grieve talk-talk clinging to my knees wrap your arms around me please-- just not there, just let me breathe... rudderless oh how profound death can be without a sound weighted by the both of us talk, talk dammit-- talk-talk drown... |

very nice piece karen made me think how terrible it is when there is nothing left to talk about ( except there being nothing to talk about) makes you miss those really nice silences two people can share Peace, ![]() There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

"rudderless oh how profound death can be without a sound weighted by the both of us talk, talk dammit-- talk-talk drown..." I have "gasped" this very thing. Oddly, was thinking of it earlier. As always K, amazing. |

I knew this kind of lonliness but I didn't feel it long. For grieving the living is harder, Than grieving those who are gone. Mighty profound Lady, and sometimes when they finally talk - really is it worth listening to? This should be a plaque ![]() |

Serenity -- I really, really liked this one! Especially: "rudderless oh how profound death can be without a sound weighted by the both of us talk, talk dammit-- talk-talk drown..." The sense of rhythm it took added to the frustration expressed! ![]() |

Very intense indeed Karen, having been there not to long ago myself. ![]() Mxx Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

"wrap your arms around me please-- just not there, just let me breathe..." Had to laugh at this, knowing this suffocating feeling-It must be terribly difficult to please someone who wants to be wrapped, but wants to breathe... Where does one find the perfect median?) I love your writings. Sometimes they baffle me, but they're intriquing and thought provoking. CTS, thank you for your hospital campout comment-it made me smile. Sadie |
