the poetry of madness

compulsive calm

Take note, for I tell you - compulsive calm is the condition that makes life enjoyable, liveable, productive, rewarding.

The children are starting to resist living with their mother.  She has given me orders designed to assist her in forcing them home again.   She doesn't realize that her words reveal her fears.

As do mine, I suppose.  Every expression contains an element of our portrait, a reflection of the internal processes that existed in a given moment, even in the most unexpressive silence.  There is no such thing as being unexpressive - we may be unexpressive on a subject of interest, but our living existence is an expression of our state.

Hold on - have to take a call from the Dali Lhama.  You know how grumpy he gets when he's kept on hold.
