ideas are like rabbits.

at least that's what steinbeck said.
on a day when i don’t feel as lovely as the snow outside, i recognize how utterly helpless i am when i become sick.  i am reduced to a child, a pint-sizer.  i loose all sense of grace and become whiny and desperate for everything and nothing at all.  i want to be alone, but i want you here.  i want soup, but i can’t taste it.  i want desperately to read, but i can’t seem to hinge my eyes awake.  my skin becomes the twisting sahara heat, and also an shivering iceberg.  i’ve found that there IS one timeless cure to my suffering: mom.  there’s just something about her nearness that is better than any brewed tea, cough drop, or bowl of vietnamese soup.
