lest there be misunderstanding covering my ass with word the scent of my intent--absurd buried in the sand, I am a prisoner of instinct bound by the walls of cell I dig-- writing my confounderings to know the way to "out" is "in." "some days it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps in the morning..." |

to know the way to "out" is "in." Now there's an interesting thought. Does that mean then....the way to "in" would be "out"? You've given me something to ponder m'lady. Hope you're well.. have missed you. Mxx The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea, changes colour, but the sea, does not change. |

Those instincts have served you well thus far so "hanging in there" is not all that bad a thing or is it? Depends on what side of glass you are on to make in, out, or out, in. |

I guess it's time for me to 'fess up. This one is kind of a personal ditty I'd written for my daughter (misao) and it was inpsired by a family pet--a black cat named Mojo. Mojo could not be contained to the confines of our house. We got her "fixed" in hopes that it would calm her down some, but it didn't help. This cat would wail and waller at the windows and door, and in our determination to keep her inside we all got very adept at ignoring her. Until... She learned a secret weapon. She developed such appalling hygeine habits that we had no recourse but to open the door and let her roam. (Thus, wince, nodding "Mojo Clusters") So the above was written after a discussion with my daughter regarding the apparent rewards of bad behavior. An interesting fact is that as a result of her outdoor misadventures, Mojo lost her lips. We have no idea if she lost them in a catfight or due to some infection she might have contracted as a result of her penchant for eating her "kills." But the fact remains, we have a cat named Mojo who made a mess of our carpet until she was granted her freedom. (Now she looks like a cat version of Darth Vader!) sigh... I ain't so deep folks. Thanks for reading! |

You realize this is going to give me nightmares right? Can't you make it a mask? Lord, that cat probably has a serious dominance issue, and likes being out to scare the crap out of every other 4-legged creature. Do you have any idea how scary that picture is in my mind - a cat with no lips! |
