Posted by A. Paige White on 02/13/07 at 06:48 PM This reminded me of Don's "poetry is for losers" poem (awesome!). It's like you took it and proved him right. We all have those days the cafe is far too far away and the sun just won't shine from here to there. Recently I've wanted to turn off my phone, too (mainly to stop all the teenage girls calling though) and snuggle into quieted shadows... I hope you give your therapist's advice a chance. Great poem. |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 02/13/07 at 07:20 PM Believable capture of phobia or even Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. You never know how well off you are until seeing what other people go through in their own minds. Fascinating! |
Posted by Joan Serratelli on 02/13/07 at 08:33 PM This piece is so good and so telling of how others see you as opposed to how you see yourself. Two dsifferent views of the very same person. This is excellent and a very interesting read- thanks for sharing! |
Posted by Genevieve Sturrock on 02/14/07 at 04:03 AM Joan said what i was going to say...great differing perspectives of the same person. as one who suffers from a crippling lack of confidence, i can actually relate to this one quite well. |
