Tonight’s full moon has the effect of making me go stir crazy – I’m beating the bars of my cage – I’m about to start beating my chest – my nostrils are flaring – if anyone even for one minute believes that we are so different from animals they need only tune into their senses to know that how we smell, see, taste, touch is not that much different from an animal – or maybe it’s just us feral humans that have these issues – these pacing the cage problems – but an animal would act on it – us humans, we need to curb our appetites and reign in our desires and calculate, and manipulate, and wait – rationalize – and wait – strategize – and wait.
Against my will, my “rational” self, I fell in love.
But I can say this about love…it deepens experience,
making all life exquisite and valuable.
Rita Mae Brown
Yes it does – and it certainly inks the writer’s pen – no?
