[tinkerjack]

Resisted urge to throw my phone through window.
Cold mountain hermit beckons.

Oh yes give me that old time religion it is good enough for me.

Let us worship Aphrodite. She's beautiful but flighty. She doesn't wear a nightie, but she's good enough for me.

- Joseph Campbell

Sometimes the light is shinning on me...I can hardly see

[constantine]

transgressor! you have profaned the sacred mysteries. you snuck into the grotto for a peak at wonder woman and got the heave ho. consider yourself lucky they didn't do a medusa on your ass, mr. guilty.

Have you ever felt as if Medusa was your mother?

[constantine]

yes. my poem, medusa, is written with that in mind.

I was thinking of the Plath poem.
I don't know much about her poetry
Was she really that brilliant?

But I have read the Bell Jar so many times I can't remember. probably ten. For me it was a field guide to mother daughter relationships. My sister and mother were on a level of communication I was clueless about. In fact all the women in my family I never could figure out what the hell they were fighting about.

I wonder why men seem to find women so much more interesting than women find men. (virginia woolf quote)


I am still reading your poem.
