things here today have caused me Feelings. so what i have to offer for this day is not much.
getting home from going to Music Thursday at the Old Folks Home i spent a lot of time with things about/with the DOG. This DOG that is a dog but more and i don't really have the wherewithall to find words for it. Just that She is .....well....She is a dog. yes. But she is different than a dog. and it's the different than a dog part that is Wearing me, Pulling me IN, causing. She works on me and works on me when i am "weak". I guess when i am most helplessly OPEN? i think that's it. When i am helplessly Open. ok. yes. This is when she works on me. ok.
