Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 04/29/14 at 04:28 PM Really a fine piece of writing, Chris. I've come back to it several times. A fascinating relationship with this person who supplied you but then helped you get help. The fair seems like the perfect venue for describing this process you went through - I get thoroughly sick on motion rides, so this is a good trigger read for me. A most effective last stanza of this part of your life fading into the distance. Thanks for this. |
Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 05/06/14 at 04:31 PM Chris, I love the line about less than lovers, more than friends and this ode is more than an ode, but something ticking inside, like coo coo, to remind us, how good, how vital, less than lovers yet more than friendships will do us in time of need and to top it off with a kiss, is bliss to a bard, who will take as many as he can get in times or remission. |
