| Someone said I ought to try this, so here we go.
Lawyering is changing the world with words, eh? Well there's a broad definition if I've ever seen one. Changing the way the law regards an individual or class of persons, thereby changing the way the law dictates others' interactions with them, is one way to change the world with words. Lawyering? Sure. But what about changing the way an individual perceives another person or class of persons, with that change in perception affecting the way they interact - that's changing the world (at least a tiny portion of it) with words as well. Lawyering? Who knows. | | briefly streak the sky.

> > | Well I'll be damned, got another one. Eben said something today regarding disassociation, and I think the speaker in this is nothing if not disassociated. And, yes, that is a nod to Thomas Wolfe in the title! (Also, had to go with the wiki formatting on this one due to the lack of italics in the other mode. It stretches out the poems, and irks the hell out of me, but I suppose it's alright to fit with the trend in this one.)
Conversation With My Angel
I’ve said this
so many times before
I should write this down
I’ve said this so many times
before I no longer know
where to begin, I’ve said this
so many times before
I no longer
know what I’m saying,
if these words have any
meaning, wont you tell me
I know I no longer love
you, I love who
you were, no longer
are, and don’t know
you at all, know you
hardly, maybe,
I’ll always know
you, who you
are or were
to me at least
what that meant | | |
