Swing

Here
                               There
Here
                                            There
Love                           Lust                                         Denial
               Tender                           Love                                     Affection

Peace
Denial                                 Truth                                  Love

This
That
Maybe
No No No
                                   High
                                   High                         Low

Happy Happy
Happy
Sad
Aggressive
Want Need you
                                        Love you

  2. Susan...I come here for--among other reasons--meanderings and reflections. And BOY-O-BOY-AND-WOW! I sure got them today.

    I could think about each of your words, even those crossed out, and meditate a bit, and suddenly it would be TOMORROW!

    What I an meaning to say is:
    WHAT A TERRIFIC POST! Thank you.

  4. A playful piece of writing, Susan. Though I suspect the emotions beneath its surface were far from playful. I thought at first, maybe, you were sitting there with a pen and journal in hand and just jotting down thoughts. But it seems there is something deeper in the repetition of the "no no no", the scratching out of the "want" and substituting it with a "need"... and the final "sobs". Here's to hoping your mood swings upward and stays there. Those dips in mood are so unwelcome. But if they help us create such lovely and honest expression, then maybe they are not so bad! ;-)

    I can never tire of reading and rereading your comments. They always are a perfect companion to my posts. I just wanted to try something more than packing words into tight sentences. The image of the mind and its stream of conscious helped me to try the experiment and lo! the words just perched themselves wherever they liked. Honest, as the mind meanders and lovely when one reflects the process :)

    Welcome to the meanderings and thanks for the lovely insights. It's strange when we visit a blog, we pick up certain posts to read. That is the wonder of choice.

    Glad to have you here. Keep visiting when you feel like it.

    Joy always :)
