Panpoetics

If you knew my mind
   You would fear me
If you knew my past 
   You would stone me
If you knew my heart
   You would love me

Short, but says a lot in three powerful statements, Maureen! (!) No woman should be feared if treated well (2) let those without sin throw the first stones (3) All people are born to be loved :) ~ Regards // paul

.... and if we knew your natural hair color we'd say, "Ahhh ... now I see" ;) But really though ... this is a fine statement to put on one's grave. Packs a punch in a few simple (yet carefully selected) statements. As a side note your hair color is pretty rad to be honest (orange is my favorite color) ...

Orange a standard go to for me, love it. I'm pretty proud of that flame job. I think I took the clippers to it and dyed it blue a couple days after that photo was taken. I've recently shaved off purple, excited to see how much grey I'm getting...

Thank you for saying that Panagiota; I have an injured brain and have been literally working very hard to get my mind flowing, I am delighted, and then some that it is turning over ;), xomo

This is brevity stunningly dripping dramatic!!!! Truly it is. I answered you on Rico's page but not sure you'll see it in your in box so I'm here to tell you I left an inappropriate comment there for you. All of which led me to this gem of yours! It's all good! CayCay
