Wet Cement

Yes, it\'s possible to feel both above, victorious, yet below, defeated, bullied, crushed, buried. I suspect many a victim feels that way intensely. You capture intense emotions and emotional reactions vividly. I hope you see that you are victorious by laying out this indictment, this sworn deposition, this magna charta of wrongs and injuries, for us all to see, judge, and declare you the prevailing party.

Locked Up Emotions
jarcher54 said:

This little tour de force says so much without giving us the facts... what happened we don\'t know, but it\'s so effective to leave the story out and just describe the emotional story, the flow of feelings, the inner drama. I feel like I want to know what happened.... but then I realize, I know. I know the important part. The part you are trying to tell...

Slipping Away

I\'ve often said to myself \"Right here right now is the center of time and space, center of the universe.\" Not to be egotistical, but to remind me to live each moment. To remember each with all its glory even as it moves away from the center... you\'ve said it in your own way, more eloquently than I.

PS \"i am nothing if not inconsequential\" is insightfully witty. I will remember that line!

In The End

You may have felt invisible and unseen before, but your eloquence makes you shine brightly, and your courage makes you command our attention. You have managed to cover in one little compact poem nearly all the existential anxieties we all share, fear, suffer from, and lie awake staring in the face. To me, by transmogrifying them into words and phrases and lines, you have eviscerated them, like malevolent insects you have stunned them and pinned them to the paper, rendering them objects to be examined, powerless and even dissected, small and petty and not as scary as they seemed when they were buzzing about our heads unexpectedly, or stinging us or scaring our children. The little devils seem to have lost this battle with your pen! Inconsequential? Not from what I read here.
