Interesting work...Enjoyed reading this afternoon..Sometimes if the pen gets lazy and lingers in one spot there is that great big spot of ink that tells on the person by saying the pen stopped here..Sara

never saw the point to those famous inkblots, but this one I like. Thanks for all of your comments on my poems. I am glad you enjoy reading them.

that is so cute, calling it a lazy spot!! (my vanity plate said Andie55 and I got lots of heads turned because my sports car was so hot looking). I felt really sad to give it up and get a stupid sedan. I actually feel like my life took a turn for the worse about the time I took those plates off my car. It is as if my body became the sedan and left behind the youthfulness of the sports car.
