Laying on of Hands

Two different hands
female hands
Laid over a knife
the hilt of a knife
Buried in a back
a male back

I finished my novel. Well, novella, cuz it's only 150 pages long. But it's finished . It's really rough, gonna need a lot of work. But the damn thing is done. Just a first draft, story I've tried to tell for years, lots of love, life, tragedy and salvation. Had to let the characters write themselves...

Oh, it get's weirder, Nazz.:)
4+3=7; 9-2=7---77
5+4=9; 9+2=11---911
or...
5-4=1; 9+2=11---111
seven and eleven--favorite numbers of the one?
Weird coincidence? I did not design this into the piece. It just happened.

Thanks, John. I've long enjoyed your work, too.

I submitted an idea I've had for awhile. It's about a better way to fill sandbags in an emergency. Ever seen news footage of a flood? They use a shovel. It's ridiculous. Whether Google picks my idea or not, I'm developing it.

I grind my teeth like that, and I'm not on coke. Sometimes at night it wakes my wife up. It's called Bruxism Here's a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruxism. Not that I would ever want to defend Bush, but jumping to conclusions is rarely if ever warranted. And almost always off-base. Peace, Barry

Singing the Long Song

I have walked the Lord
Ridden the dog
Been in league with them both
All my life

Been dreaming of a woman
From evening 'til morn
That woman has become
My wife

Little black dress and all, dude.
You ROCK!!!

Thanks to all who responded to this.
It felt good to write, better to post it.:)

I would be willing to consider this piece to be in the public domain for the duration of the campaign...if anyone wanted to pick it up and repost it elsewhere, I mean.
