Hey Meg
thanks for the cool was pretty cool. I like the disjointed structure. I used to right heaps of stuff like that, still do occassionally I guess. A little more raw perhaps but similar. Deeva will know what I mean. Feels good to get it outdoesn't it. Anyway, I thought it was profound.

the death of romance is upon me
as I trip and fall on my knee

a broken knee and a broken heart
makes road of life hard to start

it seems time and time again
i go love without my brain

she sucks all my being
and reduces it to nothing

i keep saying to myself
don't lose to the evil elf

i can only hope and pray
true love will soon come my way

Megs - a agree with what Riggs said...but man, his whole comment was a 'right' off to begin with! *cheeky grin*

'thanks for the call' - a very powerful piece, and yes Riggs did write loads of stuff like that, not now though it seems judging from the last mushy one that was produced.

Deeva...Thanks for the bday wishes on my Kiwi day AND the day after. It was quite a weekend and both days were equally crazy. One night of too much cheap tequila (GROAN) and Saturday night a "psychic" encounter in which I ended up on a stage being levitated by two mind readers. N'er a dull moment!!!

Kev...spark to flame. VERY nice. Just hit me right today.
Gala...Tinder. Keeping with the fire theme :)
Your fairy dust helped heaps Godmother ;) Can't say it was a 100% perfect weekend but an ENLIGHTENING one yes. Will have to e you about my "psychic" reading of the "situation" I have been telling you about.

Hey Megs---

Of course the fairy dust worked---ya think I'm some sort of cheap knock off elf or something? We got the real deal here honey---pointy ears and all!


Love,

Gala

I have been horribly remiss with my commentary this month, it has been a most enlightening and cathartic time for me... I do thank J for using my words in such a personal way (in a valentine for her espoused), and thanks to Megs for the compliments on the same poem...

I am very appreciative for all the kindness shown me by everyone who made mention of my submissions this month. (And no, Gala, no one spiking my jamoke...) Like I mentioned, I do not feel like the same person leaving the month as the one who entered it inhabiting this skin...

I did forget to mention (and this applies heavily on a rather sunny and warm day sure to elicit every particle of pollen known to the restless natives here) to Shady that we have no coast here out in the high desert. Lots of dirt, rocks, shrubbery and sagebrush, and what passes for a moving mud puddle, but no 'coast.'

<running off to catch up with more things I am behind with>
