life
is a book
with only one page
where the words
disappear
as soon as
they are written
but then
how could it be
any other way
since the past
is gone
and the future
has not arrived
one word
at a time
is all that ever
exists

Well put!!
(Black Dress post is up https://artgowns.com/2019/06/16/the-black-dress/)
OMG THE BLACK DRESS is fantastic and I know how much time it took you to do the artwork. It’s just wonderful. I’m so grateful to be part of it. Thank you SO much, Resa. It’s just amazing. ❤ ❤ ❤
Words, words……words.
That’s what it’s all about. We think in words, as well as pictures. We do everything with them.
I’ve always been fascinated by language for as long as I can remember, it was the key to self expression (plus I was trying to sound profound by paraphrasing Hamlet).
Hahahaha Love it. It is fun to play with language. I agree. Self expression and it also is a release valve when you need to work things out and paper is the only way to do it. 🙂
Writing is what has kept me sane all these years. 😀
Oh, me too. I understand that completely.
Nice. That’s so true. But one word at a time can take as anywhere.
Definitely.
