Ah! Thank you Rachel, Frances (please come back) and Kate (hi!) for the likes. This one is hugely personal so it's extra gratifying to think that people might be enjoying it.

Rachel/Ophelia, thank you ? It was an expression of pure honesty, many years too late and I'm so pleased you liked.

Thank you Don, Victoria, Ruth, Don (again), Cynthia and Jennifer for your lovely comments. I'll reply to you each separately soon.

And thank you for the likes; Itsjustmedownhere, Branwell, Dorothy and Mika. It's bit of a crazed poem and I really appreciate you all taking the time to read it.

I do love the WoL community; you're all so full of strangeness and experience that it's easy to feel at home here.

Nice one again Tom - 'write hard and clear about tangled emotion' -
people who are lightening rods for strangeness and experience' you express what you would like to have/be/know so well.

Bold and challenging words, Tom, and very well put. Keep working; you are developing a major contribution, especially to your own life.

I'll probably never meet such stern criteria. Doesn't mean I can't admire it in others. Although, being called 'strange' has actually happened to me. 'Strange' is a fabulous word, full of variations on a theme.

The line about people who are walking antennas really resonated with me, I was coincidentally just thinking of this yesterday when I was doing yoga. Yep embrace the strangeness, we've all got it somewhere in our being...it'd be strange if we didn't?
