It could be girl/woman, girl/woman, views that seesaw a resolute stance in the same spot watching the clock hoping, hoping, for miracles or it could be just and only a “me” steadily moving towards a dead end ~ but nothing can die and so I’m alive to the spin of destiny. It could be the pattern of weather playing havoc with everyday chaos but likely the spirits in mischievous play turning, turning, the calm and serene into a knot of concern … or it could be the bubble and boil of midnight wishes and needs maturing deep in the womb of a woman’s intuitive feel. There are lifetimes yet in destiny’s spin waiting to birth true cause and outcome to make of the “could be” a mystery no more for the wiser and bolder and more beautiful essential essence of men and women waiting now to evolve from the everyday ordinary. But for now mystery travels along the grid to land in the body, the wholesome body, of emotional sensitivity ~ and this just to keep me alive to what could and would have been love if not for the spin, the artful spin, of preordained destiny!

“to what could and would have been love if not for the spin, the artful spin, of preordained destiny!” One of the two. Or maybe both! Excellent write!! As Always. JL  |

Martie, Eric, Debo and LeeJ - thank you so much for reading. I really do appreciate your comments. I guess we are only in charge of our own destiny up to a point - like just before the spin! |
