reflection shadow illusion
A shadow of a reflection of an image of an illusion.
girl shadow records
The girl traced the outline of her lover's shadow so she would always have a record of how he looked...
girl shadow gone
The girl's lover was gone, but his shadow was still there.
eye shadow caves
How you're still always trapped. How your head is the cave, your eyes the cave mouth. How you live inside your head and only see what you want. How you only watch the shadows and make up your own meaning.
crazy fall shadow
Going to work just looked crazy. Eating another meal, ever, made about as much sense as planting tulip bulbs in the shadow of a falling atom bomb.
fall dark shadow-work
Maybe the only thing each of us can see is our own shadow. Carl Jung called this his shadow work. He said we never see others. Instead we see only aspects of ourselves that fall over them. Shadows. Projections. Our associations. The same way old painters would sit in a tiny dark room and trace the image of what stood outside a tiny window, in the bright sunlight. The camera obscura. Not the exact image, but everything reversed or upside down.
wall men shadow
Here are the shadows left behind by a thousand moments, a thousand moods, of needs traced here on the wall by men who are gone. Here is the record of their being here.
fall shadow-work association
Carl Jung called this his shadow work. He said we never see others. Instead we see only aspects of ourselves that fall over them. Shadows. Projections. Our associations.

Every apostle or disciple, as much as they're running to follow their savior- they're running just as hard to escape something else.
people stuff wild
People say I make up wild stories. But all I have to do is write down stuff that really happens.
characters third
The third person allows characters to really attack themselves. We all do this - attack ourselves - every hour of our lives.

The thing about sex is no matter how much you crave it, you can forget it.
looks room three windows woods
I usually write in my kitchen, which is a large, octagonal room that looks into woods - three big windows look out into the trees.
