Although many of my poems are directly related to things going on in my life, this one was essentially fiction.<br /><br />I had been thinking about several different academic topics and how I wanted to stitch quotations from various texts together into a commentary on them, but since I didn't have time for all that, I wrote a poem about the idea of that as a placeholder instead. <br /><br />However, the poem was boring, so I took a little poetic license--adding the metaphors so it could tell a little story that pretended to be substantive.<br /><br />By that time I was stuck on the ending, but freezing. Task-oriented person that I am, I also wanted to hurry up and finish the poem before I got up to turn up the heat--hence the ending.Chericehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374407072185351026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13581084.post-80672169208195852052010-01-19T04:54:16.599-07:002010-01-19T04:54:16.599-07:00Sounds wonderful Cherice.

Love the thought about how, upon being once "entangled", you are often never really "separated". I have often felt that way b/c many of the people I've moved away from have meant so much to me and I still think about, dream about, and keep in contact with so many of them (even ones I haven't seen in years!). Physical separation is difficult sometimes, but the bonds (and that person's influence in your life) don't ever end. I guess you could say I'm still "under the influence" of Cherice, too. :)<BR/><BR/>And I think I just might use Mary's suggestion of using a ball of yarn with our Young Women's group.
