Posted by No device, nor you, can torture me
My soul is free
One thing that is my own, what they can’t take away from me
Mine and mine alone
***
Beyond this place, beyond this harsh world is something more
Someone like me, somewhere, that no one’s ever seen before
Guaranteed.
***
Rack me!
Until my limbs dislocate
Whip me!
Down to the bone
Go ahead, aim at my heart, throw the first stone
***
I bleed but refuse to be overtaken
Do not be mistaken
I am not afraid of this. I am not afraid of you. It’s true.
YES — it is your character I must impugn!
***
Can’t fool me — but you sure do make me weary
The lies, the games, and the person you will never be
I know the web you weave
I know the destruction you leave
Most of all, I know the intricate way you like to deceive
So — BELIEVE! Believe you me!
***
My soul is at peace
Anything you say, anything you do ricochets off my exterior
You can no longer make me feel inferior
Bring it
No one can break my spirit
Nothing can chain my liberty
Bring it on and torture me
Torture me — FREE!
You Lil Dickens 
But to be free of torture is the way to be. The sculptures are fantastic. Where are they, may I ask?

I’ve heard that the largest collection is actually in my home state of Oklahoma! Of all the gin joints… He is a fantastic glassblower! World-class, born and raised in the U.S.A. I think I might do a piece on him! I admire his work so much!

My dear Eleanor, very intense, pure, strong emotions … I am delighted. PS I no longer see your posts in the reader. That’s why I’ve (unfortunately) missed a few of your great posts the last few days. And I’m just reading them now. I’ll try to stop following, and then follow you again, maybe that will help.
