Jodie's World
oh how i'd love to be in jodie's world tonight.
gazing out at everyone at the corner of her almond-shaped eyes.
blinking, blinking, blinking.
she got me at hello.
the relatives told me jodie looks like me when i was little.
they called me "the baby with the perpetual frown".
she's gorgeous.
when i held her in my arms, i almost teared as she snuggled up to me.
i felt heavy as i finished the unbearable lightness of being.
it's startling how everything you do can have conflicting implications...how every seemingly good thing has a bad flipside.
i'm almost afraid to start on my next book - Sophie's World.
i fear i'm not ready to take on theology and philosophy all at one go.
but i'll try. and if i get too fucked up, i'll stop.
and read more theology ;)
my legs are aching and i'm tired, but i still want to dance.
spin me baby.
