Define Logic >memories

there was something curiously soothing and gentle beneath his brash exterior

with no logical explanation at hand or particular emotionaldisturbance she let it be

it was pitifully sparse informationto go on she thought in frustration

EXCITEMENT TENSION AND FEAR................

no matter how unclear and illogical the conclusion might proove to be 

her own voice was all she could distinguish out of all that hideous cacophony

it was all just one tidal wave of sound and image to her like inmates howling in prison

"i'm a fairly intelligent woman"she thought to herself

then why cant she figure out who he is

she dipped her hands in quite a few cesspools so she was a good judge of character

hes become virtually invisible now

all she could conclude was he was a memory

just a memory


of someone she once knew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Many of us can probably relate to dipping our "hands in quite a few cesspools." Love that line! Sometimes memories of someone special whom we once new can establish water marks that no one who follows can ever hope to reach. I've had feelings similar to those you convey, Brandy. Very interesting write! Love, Carolyn
