OK, since no one ran away screaming at the first one....

Too many time you wander,
searching the night for the right --
the right boy, the right plan, the right excuse.
And sometimes you find all three.
Lucky you.
But I hear you searching in the night,
sounding your cry, shrill and plaintive,
over the clamor of the crowd,
and I am appalled by your naivte and boldness.
But I don't want to shelter you.
I want to watch you seek, and crash and burn, and rise.
Because then I don't have to.
OK, there's something - damn. I can't analyse; I refuse.
But I can try this, Erin, and please tell me sod off and shut the fuck up if not?
But I don't want to shelter you.
I want to watch you seek, and crash and burn
and rise.
Because that way?
I don't have to.
(There's just something - something in the pauses, or the breaths.)
No, no. No sodding off, here.
I pondered (god, how pretentious!) the crash and burn line, too.
I do like the irony in dropping, the "rise" line - that's good.
Hrm.
Deb, I did a review, but it wouldn't let me say what should be purchased with it. Right now it recommends Sunshine, which isn't really a bad choice, though not thematic or even similar in style. I did like them both. Fewer narrative problems in Weaver, though.
Ooh, hopping to read review. I am now an Author!Geek!
Good reference, Betsy. I only read the link page, but it seemed very good to me.
Deena, I may have missed a step. Your review is up but mine isn't--and it didn't offer me the options of books to choose with Weaver. Did I do something wrong?
Should I go back to Amazon and try to post it again, you think?
Beverly, if mine is up, that's new. They take a bit to review it, and they didn't offer me the opportunity of suggesting something to go with it either, so everything's probably fine.
