I almost teared up just reading about your older sons and their baby brother. How very sweet.

Why is it that women called Joy are generally anything but?

I frequent other boards......... I have extracted a statement from one such place, to point out that this is probably the most pathetic line I have heard in the history of my internet surfing, and board perusing. I have edited out the names to protect the flaming retard.
"L" is not a real Racist, despite "A's" post to the contrary, touting him as "the real thing" in regards to the subject. I deserve that accolade a thousand times more than "L". In case you think it is a matter of context or is in a sarcastic vein, do not fear. It was posted in all seriousness. I am so confounded by this outrageous stupidity that I could smack myself in the face. *Rant*

After only one cup of coffee I have thought of a good way to thwart the Somali pirates - have Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger drive the ships. Now I'll have another cup while I solve another problem in the world.

So today I decided to try to work out my heartbreak by writing a series of poems I'm calling "99 Laments for Grendelmouse"
The idea being that each time I find myself weeping over a memory of him, I will write the scene in poem form, four stanzas per poem, four lines per stanza, and by the time I get to 99 I will either be over him, or at the very least I'll have a whole bunch of poems to show for it. |

Oh I like that plan Tiki. What a marvellous idea. It's a great way to work out your feelings on stuff I find, poetry. it's weird really, because it's probably a more intimate exploration of your feelings than just experiencing them, but at the same time it's got that slightly mechanistic aspect that gives just that little distance, lets you experience it at one remove.
If your prose poem was anything to go by, I suspect you'll end up with some fine work. |

I like to write them a letter saying anything I want to, and then burn it. (safely)
It's incredible what I find on the paper, as I end up with notions I did not even know were floating around in the brain. I like to write the poetry as well. But my letters usually end up being more direct. When I let the letters sit in a notebook, and don't burn them I know I am not even ready to let it go. I unintentionally dilude myself a lot so it does serve as a mental hint on my progress, or lack thereof. I like to push the process before it's time. There is a recipie I use to detect my own bullshit. It's letter writing, and my actions from there. ![]()

but
might not concerns consigned to ash sometimes be dispersed when voiced and questioned face to face? might not the hurts be found unfounded and brave honesty allow one sometimes to trade away tears for embrace?

It is context that makes it come out "I'm stupider." or "I'm braver." or "I'm better." The slap myself crack earns +1.

As you say, Cicero... "I wish".
In the meantime, the poems are the best form of expression I have. |
