Subterfuge












waltzing impeccably
on the limits
of time and providence
i slice my image
into thin wedges.

sashaying flawlessly
on putrid flesh
of rationale and pledge
i sculpt myself
as individual yet again.

    self is not always easy to find
    i keep re-reading this and thinking about it
    (mind you - anything with the word "sashaying" in it has to be good) :)
    cheers

    floots:self is never easy to find. Just when we think we did, it takes a volte face. I used sashaying becos I felt it conveys what I want to. I need the positivity.

    plona: yes, we do! I always do...

    margie: thanks.

    pat: It is supposed to reinforce, not weaken it. I don't know if I succeeded.

    keshi: hug you sweetie.

    andrew: Thanks.

    yeah,"sashaying " always grab my attention. :)

    slicing images is more like photoshop, where we can use it to cover a flaw or enhance certain properties. good analogy here. :)

    Sometimes we have to slice through layered images.
