Bend before the breeze
Feel it whistle right past you
And it won’t break you

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Better to bend than to break. Better a breeze than a hurricane. All things shall pass. Your haiku triggered a philosophical drift. ❤
