Wilderness 55
I had a dream that I fell in the woods.
Vines grew over me.
Bugs crawled through my hair.
A little bird came and sipped at the rainwater that had pooled in my upturned ear.
Eventually, the worms and fungi finished off what was left of me.
And none of them even said, "Thank you."

Invited 55
An invitation in a dream
smoky and alluring
heard with ears hungry
for affection
a spark catching in
the tinder of one heart
catching
spreading
roaring
until
heat-to-toe
the invited feels
awash in flame
afire with yearning
alive with the gift
of being
desired
just six words:
"Close the door and come here."

Random Musical Magic 55
The refrain from "Major Tom"
The guitar solo from the album track of "My Sharona"
The insane time signature of "The Crunge"
The first time I heard the flute part in "Hocus Pocus"
The opening drums to "Ballroom Blitz"
The fact that John Lennon doesn't actually ask you to DO anything in "Imagine"
Good stuff.

Novel 55
If I keep to the schedule I made last week, I'll finish my current novel in just over one month. Do you want to know my secret for writing novels? It's not really too deep. Start writing. Keep writing. Write almost every day. Outline thoroughly. When something in your novel bores you, change it.
Easy.

Belief Alone 55
He believed in love so powerful it needed no touch -- love that could abide across any distance and against all temptations.
She believed in love so vast it could sweep away all worry, all despair, all pain, everything.
If only one of them had spoken up during Witterston's Shakespeare class, then they might have met.

Waiting 55
She waited for the right time to say something.
The right time.
The right place.
The right person to say it to.
She waited.
Even though she knew ...
Every time is a time.
Every place is a place.
Every person has the potential to hear.
She waited ... and that was okay.
Being ready is important.
