this, as a whole, eclipses most else i've read of yours.
an aura of...tenderness, perhaps?
i've forgotten the exact word, at the moment, but inverted paternalism is what i'm trying to get to.
many more questions, though: is it based on a specific person? the..err..rest of the questions will have to wait till later, because i must zoomph into offline mode.

again, thank you.

there aren't enough rants in the world.

Great. More elaboration on the last four lines, perhaps, might have added something still more?
Just a thought.

on why am i still thinking about blood? by Patsy 13 Aug 2003, 2:57 PM
hrm. for some reason, i liked "unburden" much better. the last line is more *you*, i think, than most of the rest.
Very ... now? present? here? not quite sure *what*, exactly, but it's there. In general, alive.
no "pretenses", at any rate.
