Excellent poetic thoughts! One thing I learned in prison ministry that sometimes the hardest thing for prisoners to do is forgive themselves for a crime they committed and move on with life. It's hard to imagine not feeling comfortable and at peace with yourself when you are by yourself, especially at night. One mafia-hit-man once told me that he had everything but peace. Therefore he had nothing! There was always the feeling that someone was going to sneak up, tap him one the shoulder and tell him his life was history! No peace, no joy, no comfort and nowhere to hide from himself. Wow! What a way NOT to live!
Amen!
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
A naïve councilman and a down-on-her-luck single mom try to save their county’s last stand of forest from greedy developers and a dysfunctional government.
Love ya!

Seriously, I love it when you're being funny and everyone takes you seriously. That's the sign of a good writer. You catch them coming from all sides.
As for me, I laughed at your poking fun of treating your various writing persons as companions. Good stuff.

Amen!
