Open-Ended
As the creature reached toward her from the depths of bitter darkness with his claws manacingly extended, they turned into a man’s hands once entered the day’s light of her loving presence.
The Best Kind Of Fool
Retrospect
She should have asked…
He should have offered…
The Obvious Miss
“Why didn’t you help me?” she asked him, plaintively.
“You never asked me…”
As One, At Last
Mission Possible?
Is This True?
Walking Green Flag
Back In The Water, Jeff!
The Correct Answer
Tsunami
That trough drop of warning
Where inhaling gathers up air
To let loose internal storming
No other heart can compare
You
“You’re over there – and then, there.
Behind things…
Repositioning.”
Opening Doors
“I’m sick,” he told her flatly.
“Ok,” she responded, accepting. “Can I come in?”
Head-Bangin’ Stank Face
Trust The Book
Always
“What do you want from me?” he asked her.
“Everything,” she admitted.
Gutter Slang
“‘Society grips men by their balls.'”
Hissing Spit
“What Good is a man for then – anyway?
If a woman is supposed to fill every role – and is yet still discarded as inadequate…
If she must rise to every occasion on her own to defend of her self, her children, and battle injustices to hold ground in society…
How then can a man expect that she can make any room for him?
Is today’s modern man good for anything beyond briefly yielding genetic seed?”
Slitted Eyes, Sharp Claws
“If you are a protector, then why don’t you protect?”
In Times Of Need
“You ask for help…
You find that help is limited – and often with attached conditions that you cannot afford…
Ultimately, you find that everything is still up to you to try to control…
But resistance is futile…
And pieces just reassemble to counteract the good that you promote and would see in the world…
So you continue to find ways to outsmart the patterns…
But you know that it’s all still a wasteful game – bleeding time, effort, and energy…
It becomes irrefutable that you are on your own…
Because who you want isn’t calling on the phone…
And he certainly isn’t bringing the calvary.”
