True. As a testament to my hippie days, everytime I smell patchouli I get flashbacks to either girls I've known or my '67 E-Type Jag since I accidentally crushed a pack of patchouli incense in that car and it smelled like that from then on. I wish I still had that car.

rarefied air. Poem by Melora
------------------------------------------- The moon is a monocle And condensation obscures its vision It can see us in slits, cracks, and crevices Where our fingers have traced through Mingling breaths of Rarefied air It views us through capsules Capsizing where condensation ceases to congeal Catalyzed where our faces are concealed Behind panes of rarefied air. The next poster thinks poetic thoughts, sometimes writes them down, and hopefully will share them with us, joyfully. |

True.
i am i am the color of dirt after the rain i am the strength of a lion after being ripped from the womb i am the confusion of a flower growing in a cave i am the love of a child watching her parents being hung i am the tenderness of a girl being beat for loving a woman i am the anger of twelve men feeling the whip on a boat to the states i am the speed of one of them running for his life i am the justice that gives reparations to the Indians as well i am not the majority but i am what allows it to live The next poster reads Neil Gaiman and enjoys it.

Я говорю по-русски. Albeit at about an eighth-grade level, if that.
The next poster has seen The Big Lebowski more than once.

A few signs, but I keep putting off taking that class. (But I have seen The Big Lebowski at least four times.)
Which movie have you seen more times than any other?

The next poster sometimes posts for the one thread in another thread.

(dd3953, that poem you wrote,is now a part of me, I read it many times over,
and tasted the numerous flavors of it, and I am certain, the next time I read it, more will be revealed. Thank You.) I write wherever and however and forever, for all. The next writer will remember the thing that has been elusive. |

true and it's thanks to you, ring. The feeling that someone else can and will get something from your writing, find something of themselves in it, connect to it - having that happen, and remembering what it feels like when it does, sometimes that's hard to remember and hold on to. But it reminds (all writers I think) that we are not just writing for yourselves, but to give something to someone else.
So thanks. The next poster has thought about what they will be wearing to their funeral.

true
that just made me think of a tim buckley quote "You are what you are, you know what you are, and there are no words for loneliness -- black, bitter, aching loneliness that gnaws the roots of silence in the night..." the next poster walks around their house naked.

True. I took pictures of my wife's placenta after she gave birth to our baby boys and the boys like looking at it.
Mother's Day is good for the flower and brunch industry but most mom's like the special attention anyway. |

True. We love having three generations of gals together.
You haven't yet thought about someone's Mother's Day.

false, I'm wearing some kind of silly Simple shoe because one of their mottos is "shoes for a happy planet" and I fell for that line; though now that you reminded me, I need to buy new sandals. And Jetée, I would adopt you in a minute and love you, and not just because I could use another tax deduction.
The next poster will wear a tie to visit mom tomorrow. |

At one time
that might have been true too bad it died— along with me, too. So as I now ponder to give you a new query; I wonder if at all you know how to say hello in Kashmiri?

False. You revel in pain.
The next poster has experienced deja vu within the past twenty-four hours.

I most certainly am, John Deere blades and a bench belt sander. I actually miss mowing the lawn, all I got now is sand. Well, sand and a rake.
The next poster has dressed as the opposite sex for Halloween.
