She looked at me with blue gray eyes somber I was much afraid I'd given her the all of me so I feared what she might say. "Hemingway!" she did proclaim and still I was confused-- "What? Too many adjectives?" She laughed at me and said: "I have perfect taste," she sniffed, mocking her pretentiousness buffing nails of glossiness as if to demonstrate. "This" she said, "is poetry." (I thought I'd written prose.) And Hemingway was not my choice of author influencing voice. Not that I had disrespect I'd just felt more heaviness from him as I'd read his word-- and thus, it wasn't praise I'd heard when she'd called me by his name. I took my notebook back from her-- the secret one which held the key of my scribbles endlessness containing all the "all" of me blushing as I clutched the rag of all the tears and fears I'd had I looked to the ground and asked, "which one?" and then she laughed that laugh, chiming bells to make me smile "All of them." She kissed my cheek. "No bulls will die today," I said. She looked at me confused. I sighed, and I knew she hadn't read the author questioned of critique. I'd given her the all of me. She called me someone else. [This message has been edited by serenity blaze (12-16-2004 01:51 AM).] |

Sigh. It's time, dear...it's time. "What," you say. But you already know my mind. Just as you know P.S. I like this...you bring tomorrow into today and in some ways? It's ok, very ok, to be "like" another...in some ways... at least you're like someone famous... |

damn.. so hard when we put them up on that pedestal and they don't live up to it... but then we were the ones that put them there in the first place.. *sigh* I wish I could hug the you of then.  "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

And it gets even better, only you...  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
