Literary friction

Reading the right type of novel makes you better at understanding people.And that must be good….
Reading Fifty Shades of … is not so useful  and if you buy some whips and such like,you are increasing your expenditure.Be creative.DIY.. use a hair ribbon.
Free  fantasy for all.Start now.. well later on…not yet
I looked at that book..I did not realise what it was.The first 3 pages seemed dull so I put it back on  Waterstones‘  table.I can’t write a novel so I shall write a limerick.. and before I get mad,why does my layout keep changing?Am I haunted?
LOVE YOUR KITTEN
There was an old lady from Britain
Whose love focussed on her cat’s kitten.
She gave it warm milk
Wrapped it in silk.
And now she is knitting four mittens.Is that literary?LITERARY LIMERICK?

A philosopher  is a person who thinks
While she washes up at the sink.
She turns over her mind
And lets it unwind…..
She writes all her thoughts down in ink.

CAN YOU TELL LIES?

Some people can’t fantasise
I wonder if they can tell lies?
Reverie  suits  me…
I daydream at tea.
Maybe my followers are spies?

Dandelion clocks

Why clean when you could

Chase dandelion clocks round the garden
Tame some ants.
Photograph cobwebs.
Watch clouds go by.
Kiss you other.
Chase bugs out of your bed.
Save a spider from going down the plug hole.
Dust your hair.
Watch rain drops run down the window
Slip off the patio and break your collarbone
Drink cheap tea in A & E.
Fall off your bike.
Lose yourself in your thoughts
Go into a brown study
Read my lips.
Paint your face.
Look into a mirror
Sniff hot salt water up your nose
Any of the above?
All of the above?

What a joke!

What! A joke.

What’s your game?

A relationship

Sometimes  we may believe we are having a relationship with someone,maybe a friendship or love  affair.As time passes one or other party may become more and more critical of the other.This may possibly  be for good reason.Or what at first one person saw as ideal.wonderful,perfection in the other is revealed [or not] to have been a fantasy.On the gap between the real and the ideal being noticed complaints are made  and  anger or rage  is felt.

If people can tolerate the painful gap between the real and the ideal then a true relationship may develop.More likely the idealizing partner will break off and seek perfection elsewhere in a new person. In truth there never was a real relationship.One person was simply caught up in the other’s fantasy life.In the real world no-one is entirely good,perfect or our dream lover.This illusion is very painful to give up.

.Easier to believe that one day we will meet Prince  or Princes Charming.. our other half  We are like almost blind people wandering around just seeing bits of the other.We have our own world but is it a shared one?After all we are all human beings and we do share existential loneliness and even dread.Hunting for someone to fit a pattern in our mind means we are not living in shared reality…it’s too painful.
