Blockhead

 

often, I wonder, iffen my head

were indeed a tv screen, would it

of mine began to ever change

Wow-this is good James, and has so many implications. I may be off here but... I think of this as a good analogy of why communication is so much more important than t.v. We need to read between the lines if we are truly communicating. T.V., newspapers, books,....they can all hinder our reading body language and touching the soul of another. Well done, my friend. :-)

This is one of those piece with which most of us could relate ourselves and that too very well...
Great piece of writing!

I love this, of course, and I enjoy thinking about the reading-into that Carole did of this piece. Definitely, what she said rings true. I love the "iffen", as well. It adds an element that sets the tone for the piece. Another wonderful piece you've written for one of my contests. I'm very glad you did!!
