how many faces can one face be?
how many selves dwell within me?
Cecilia, Calypso, a Minoan Snake Priestess...
the Angel With the Dirty Wings
Tigress
no, not the Euphrates too
maybe...
Goddess of the Sea!
command the rivers of destiny?
Tigris and Euphrates
a valley
rock-a-bye baby
love as tragedy
the one constant
self pours forth to sweeten the earth
yes, drink me
yes, eat me
you turn away!
your mistrust is understandable
bring your taster, expendable
Mount Sinai
don't ask me why
looks pretty desolate to me
mount her
claim her
own her
you can get blood from a stone
come alone and you will see
it may be this queer thing they call reality
it drips flame and blows sand
change is constant, constant change
hold me please
i could use a hand

Discovering the SG community, has given me the opportunity to discipline myself to write daily to an audience without too much censorship. Apart from my exhibitionist and voyeurist tendencies, putting myself and my life experiences and musings out there is a way for me to free myself creatively - one day my short stories want to fill a book. ...I'm still unpicking the locks of my fertile imagination.
Nice meeting you.
