Insisting on the particulars and on texture.

Stories express relationship, bring us in, expand awareness of ephemeral intimate worlds. Where may we be, unleashed from expectations? Which sins are nature’s? Evolving from animal to beast, is this our best? Hillock play, a school on holiday; Winter is friendly. Swirls of mystery invite hot drinks, warming tales. Theatre prevails, ritual of ascent. Out in the pines, dreaded satire, ceremonies of rage controlled to focus flame, to burn in shame, to counter pain for power. Questions. Questing makes us wise. Resist hypnotized consent: “Yes, oh great glowering crowd, yes, Sir Mighty Educator. Your words stink with deceit under sweet perfumes, narcotics draining of ability to decline.” Each “who am I” innocent of irony, ready to accept and be glad, secreted away for a better day; listen. Stories safely told safely hold dream-hidden refugees below surface travails. Lost in flailing, in crafts lacking integrity, cracking, leaking, failing to protect. Sirens devise beauty, inspiring, drawing upward those myths that seekers of meaning in desperation complete. 12/15/16    nondisclosed_email@example.com (libramoon)Thu, 15 Dec 2016 23:34:31 +0000
