It's stifling and nearly unbearable, but something that just has to be endured, cause running screaming into the night just isn't an option, too many people depending on you being there.Spritzyhttp://spritzy-stuff.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093398514424643241.post-207488408301168032011-10-09T14:47:31.179+11:002011-10-09T14:47:31.179+11:00Except for 16 words - probably the most profound w...Except for 16 words - probably the most profound words of this piece, I'm imagining the crux of your limbo - it is as if you climbed inside my head and gazed at the world through my eyes. Limbo sucks great hair dogs balls, I hope it's a transition place for you. This was beautifully written, it flowed like satin. I enjoyed the words even if the topic was uncomfortable.No onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05516581267618212776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093398514424643241.post-77440542787352468822011-10-07T17:56:20.711+11:002011-10-07T17:56:20.711+11:00Like Sarah I loved the beginning and ending with t...Like Sarah I loved the beginning and ending with the tarot card. I love the way you've written this; capturing your mood and a sense of lethargy.

The anaology of the tarrot card is perfect and I love the way you started and ended with it.<br /><br />I agree that the short sentences work really well with this too. Little snapshots. I get the impression of someone sitting moitionleslly while the world carries on around them just being roused every now and then almost on auto pilot to do the things that need to be done.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402703967636964187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093398514424643241.post-82484467749146738082011-10-06T15:17:44.336+11:002011-10-06T15:17:44.336+11:00Amazing.

The way you write really appeals to me and I liked this piece. The small sentences work well for all that is going on as I think it helped convey the mood of limbo - things happening but you are not absorbing them, just floating through the motions? Sleeping on the couch told us a lot, I think and the pinwheels painted a good image too. <br /><br />It's always a good idea to start at the beginning.<br /><br />Gill xInkPaperPenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14595595934607152505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093398514424643241.post-81591809391897798352011-10-05T17:17:59.069+11:002011-10-05T17:17:59.069+11:00You sound very interesting, if a little stretched ...You sound very interesting, if a little stretched at the moment!
