I'd stepped into her place. Become a prisoner like she was. Silk made such soft shackles. - Janet Fox

These are days of wobble:
corporate insecurity,
tremors of uncertainty,
damage limitation and insolvency,
survival of the fattest
and houses built on sand.
God help us.
What makes you think he's even there at all
and listening,
remotely interested in the mess we're in?
Nature does what nature is;
it's down to us to sort it out.
What happens if we don't
or won't
or can't,
what then?
Desperate behind meaning behind new at ten
you dare open wide horizon eyes
and in the isolation of an anguished heart
you contemplate a god,
He is not far from us
in fact.
- Alex Mowbray
