Might She by Chance be a Witch
dusk arising said:

Bewitched by her femininity you have been sir! And such a wonderful spell to fall beneath, and to rise beneath, each again and again.
One such told me women disliked her though i found her quite exciting. Never a broom nor housework found her, there must have been magic afoot.
An lovely entertaining read today which took me places of yesteryear.

Thought provoking.

At first I read this like a person comparing himself to another, differing perspectives that cannot be reconciled. Though the I seemed supreme. The I seemed worthy. The I had something to lose.

Then I read it like a conversation between self and societal norms and judgements. How society tries to bend people to fit preconceived ideas and notions, until individuation is gone and then there is nothing left of the self.

Then of course I thought of two inner voice fighting amongst themselves.

Thought-provoking.

As the psychiatrist told me \'speaking to your second personality, i\'d get out now whilst you still can\'.
I asked him for a second opinion.

When They Took Away the Tumour
orchidee said:

Yes, glad is all well now. We might never know what some folk have been through. We had special prayers for a couple of church members. But they \'departed\'. Some say there is healing in that - relief from pain, etc. I might have supported them more, but did not know them too closely.

Neville,

I love your “scribble”!

A beautiful and loving poem for your wife!
Glad the tumour is gone! Scars are an important. They reminds us to hold dear the ones we love!
The scar is there and your love is stronger than ever!

Exquisite!

Excellent story and excellent composition.
Each line a thrill leading to the next line.
If you wrote that autobiography Fay encourages, and in this style, it would be \'un-put-downable\'.

An intriguing read Neville - - - these romantic walks down your memory lane have all the flavour of a good autobiography in the making - ever considered it my tale-telling friend ?

Waiting for Cancer
dusk arising said:

Strange frame of mind comes thru your words. Is it one of defeat? Is it giving up? I really hope not.
Whilst moods can lower us into pits of hopelessness and despair they are transient. The world with all it\'s cancers is still a beautiful stage on which we fluff our lines and play to a sceptical front row - but now and again the applause is resounding.
