from 'incuribly sick' to 'matrix', what a trip!!!
ReplyDeleteI like this, Dianne. The rhyme in these short lines is the pulse in a strong artery.
ReplyDeleteA fascinating journey taken in syllables across the universe. I really like this and it also is quite humbling, like the photo.
ReplyDeletethe phoenix arose only to find themselves stuck in the matrix....yikes!

Happy birthday, Dear Dianne. Nascent. Fresh. Nest. Expunge. Arise out of the pyre a healthier woman.
ReplyDeleteI didn't do my blog roll yesterday. I am sorry I didn't wish you your big beautiful birthday then. I'm on a writing deadline today too. Look at what I'm doing instead. I'm waiting for some women to wake up so I can interview the. Happy day after your big day. It's not the quantity. It's the quality.
Dear Dianne San,
ReplyDeleteHappy rebirth
