Drunk on playing hooky and Wild
Turkey, slip to the creek to make love,
oblivious to the danger presented
by sharp rocks and woken snakes.
Any minute now, a camper’s going
to stagger from a nearby tent, waving
a flashlight with one hand, grabbing
his fly with the other. Spy us
and forget to pee. So?? Got […]
Writing Bug bit when I was 8. Little prize at 12, that was IT. Now, if I just had time to actually put the words swirling in my head on paper. But life is what it is. Laziness and reverberations from a chaotic childhood combined with pressures having to do with gender and class and time slipped past. I messed up, okay? Add normal distractions like marriage, parenthood, returns to school, juggling jobs. . .. . you get the picture. Got a bag of excuses, take all you like. . ~{P}~ By 1986. . .{contin'd at www.authorsden.com/phyllisjeangreen; thanks.}

“The Struggle, First Generation”
-Introduction-

This journey of life has been challenging, yet a spiritual enlightenment in many respects. The many people I have met along the way have taught me humility and an appreciation for all life.
Spending time with family and close friends is most important, rewarding and it is with their support that I write today.
Working my way through college at night and being a single mother of four has been both challenging and an inspiration for me to reflect back upon.
I have many hobbies and with each the most rewarding part is in sharing with others.
My favorite choice is to be out in nature w . . .
I interpreted the heavens today
As a cache of infinite musical notes.
Suspended in random fashion, I viewed
The stars through a transparency etched
With the five lines of a musical staff.
Moving the sheet across the sky, I was
Perfectly beguiled when the stars became
Notes stacked in harmonies of minor fifths
And sevenths - semitones and microtones -
A wash of minuet […]

We are the eternally expanding
Terrain of an unfathomable expedition.
We are a universe within a Universe;
A world within a World;
A mind within a Mind;
A heart within a Heart;
A dream within a Dream.
We are one created within One –
One being one through an illusion of “other.”
We are spirit exploring Spirit –
Self of many selves.

A good family she came, then she grew,
her very own family, from a circle of two.A […]
