- "This should be the anthem of coming to terms with age, changing phases of life, that small little ache the points to the suspicion we are somehow missing an opportunity to be a little better...a little more effective...simply, just a little MORE of something intangible. This was very well crafted and executed. "i want you to see me
as you once did
before you saw me.
Before you knew me." - these are especially insightful, honest, transparent lines. In the end...you can't truely engage with someone that does not truely know you, but when they KNOW you, a little bit of the mystique necessarily fades away... That is the conundrum! I think that is really the major challenge in life...although it is easier to wish things didn't change, so we could perfect our place and role...it HAS to change...and how do we keep ourselves and our footing...how do we grow and become better, yet remain who we are... Anyway, sorry for the "book," but this was a thought provoking piece that spoke to me more than a piece has in a long time. Well done! Ciao, T/S"

- ""yet we believe ourselves immortal
that life is everlasting
that we are swifter
than the rising tide" - so true...ignoring the fleeting nature of our existence is how we can justify wasting it... i love this piece and all the mythological references it contains. Ciao, T/S"
