Confessions of a married woman

No, I have not baked the cake,
I spent the day
getting over
a conversation,
a meeting,
an encounter.
Words, eyes, and
smiles mixed with
ambiguities,
uncertainty,
anxiety.

I am relieved now,
days have passed and
it’s back to normal.
I have baked the cake.

Woo!

ewa said...

Oi?

cryptic42 said...

I feel jelly legs, from the encounter.

cryptic42 said...

Maybe a line space before "I am relieved..."

ewa said...

yes, thank you. Also, hope the note of irony shows. I am, after all a just-post-second waive feminist!

ewa said...

Don't know if I like it with a space....

cryptic42 said...

Space was too big. How about now?

cryptic42 said...

Just-post-second waive feminist? Define?

ewa said...

will do, after work.

PS. Now (after the limericks) they will ALL have a look! Was that intentional, or just pure chance? It might get busy here...

Once in the flow, you know... They still have to take that first step.
But once they do... How you gonna keep em down on the farm...

Maybe.

I seem to have forgotten to deal with theory here. Must come back and do that. 'Explain irony and feminism in Confessions of a Married Woman.'

A whole lecture subject in itself. Are we sitting comfortably?

ewa said...

I love ambiguities and uncertainties, they are the very stuff of meaning. Husband.

cryptic42 said...

Is that Jed? Hi Jed. Sing us a song while you are there.

ewa said...

He tried to sign in but to no avail. So borrowed my identity.

As I have said, anyone wanting to play the game with us must request an invitation. No-one gets in without an invitation. Does he want to participate, or just read? I am speaking as if he was not there, I hope he doesn't mind if he is...

ewa said...

No One Is, as we are all just reflections of disemboddied reality. Amazing how much this affects us; immaterial words appearing on the screen in ways in which hardly anybody can explain.... But, no, he doesn't mind. I am sure.

cryptic42 said...

Don't go in too deep, Ewa, I am not a qualified lifeguard.

cryptic42 said...

Still waiting for the 'Just-post-second waive feminist' definition.

ewa said...

OK. Will do. Sorry. In the middle of the marking madness.
