[||| Calling ALL CARS |} ~

As everyone knows, I tend to write randomly.  My process is rarely by choice but words and ideas are lightening and I’m struck by lines in books, movies, songs, conversations… it isn’t something I can force or produce just for the sake of producing to say I wrote something today.  However, I like being introduced to new ideals and subject matter.  I’m taking suggestions this week so please send your questions, tidbits, and 2cents to dearquill@gmail.com .  Also if you’d like to feature art, a poem, music/video, an essay that vehicle will take you where you need to go.

Little White/Black Lies

A friend of mine posted on facebook that the three biggest lies told are:

1) I’m fine

2)This is my last stick of gum

3) I have read and agree to the Terms of Service & Conditions

I had a good laugh when I read it, but began to think about the top players that come carousing in my life.  It’s amazing what you stumble across when you navigate through fiction and deception.  I could say I love you but I was loved.  I could say I’ll always be there for you, but those who make that promise have been even if it wasn’t always when I really needed it.  I could even throw out I need you, but I’ve said those very words and found I didn’t need those as much as I thought.  Three— do I list betrayals that have cut the deepest or reveal those repeat offenders… hmm, both.

 

 

So that brings me here:

1)I’m fine.

2)The truth is…

3)I’m on my way.

What are yours? 

 

For a friend who sees behind the scenes

 

Art is never chaste.  It ought to be forbidden to ignorant innocents, never allowed into contact with those sufficiently prepared.  Yes, art is dangerous.  Where it is chaste, it is not art.

–Pablo Picasso

Down Here in Hell…. with You.

Because Love isn’t about Display

“What would I do if we were perfect? Where would I go for disappointment?  Love without Pain would leave me wondering why I stay”.
