“whose” wrong?
| October 26, 2007 | Posted by caroline under ethics, storytelling, Uncategorized |
when the fist hits the shove, there’s something amiss, those curbs aren’t so kind when you’re saying goodbye..can trust be resolved? i think not.. we were at dominion, and the man in front of us caused a bit of a stir. he had two identical mastercards, and he asked the lady to try both of…
Freeform: ignatius
| October 22, 2007 | Posted by caroline under dreaming, freeform, Uncategorized |
so leave it to me to fall, and fall… feel, feel what i’ve wanted, look forward to fresh pastures, enjoy the wind at my back, pushing me forward.. gush about it, want it, love it and crave it. then, to go and disown it, to slap it in the face, to mock it and talk…

..i’ve been back on the sufi kick lately (prayers?)..now let’s see how well i can apply it.. ———————— Listen for the stream that tells you one thing. Die on this bank. Begin in me the way of rivers with the sea. Rumi – Coleman Barks – from “Say I Am You” —————– You’ve no idea…
worn

can’t seem to tell whether it’s the glare from the sun or having no one that makes me stare a little harder, try to read the fine print that freckles your wince, catch on to the subtext that sends me anew, press harder into your skin so i can leave my mark and come back…

it’s been some time since i’ve felt the urge to rip out a pen and paper in public. —- I remember the streets Throngs of men Who hadn’t seen their wives in years I remember the wooden stairs Women with the same stained and crooked teeth Scraping away at my heels Roughened by poolside tiles…

it’s a lonely, lonely place. especially.. ..when no one’s home. everything goes so quiet. and this is what *most* days are like–cause i work from home (when i’m not taken by surprise) ..when all the cars are gone…the walk to a central area is long, all the houses look the same, i don’t know anyone…

..Sunday evening, i went to a show where all the singing was in arabic. i didn’t understand one bit of the lyrics but sang along with some of the words, danced in my head to the traditional arabic dabke that would accompany parts of the show if space allowed..recalled my time spent attempting to kick…
Audience vs Stage
