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.
