WRITERS WRITE...WRITING PARTNERS FEUD

THE POETRY OF CHARACTERIZATION

Z: Let's make her a redhead...(notices Ang is lost in thought when they are in the midst of creating a new character) or we could have a bald heroine.

A: It's a thought.  (Has the look of someone lost in space)

Z: With just one strand of purple hair...

A: (No reaction)

Z: And braided with the bones of a long dead armadillo....

A: I'm not ready for lunch.

Z: Are you listening at all...

A: Of course, I am, we were talkinga about a new heroine, full of life and vigor and totally obsessed with the hero, all set in a fantasy.

Z: Errr...well...yes...but I was talking about her hair color.

A: That is not important.

Z: Not?

A: Well it is but I think we should concentrate on the soul first.

Z: Huh?

A: (Grins) I wrote a poem.

Z: Poem?

A: Wanna hear?

Z: Welllll, I....

A: It reflects her emotions.  (Doesn't give him a chance to respond)

TURNING


I turned about and he was there, so convivial And charming with a heart alive and free - a Soul that cared not of façades but of

What drifted beyond superficial angles

And lines, beyond past turmoil and

truth convoluted


I turned again, seeking things not known

He smiled not quite a smile that split the sky

Tempting with lures and strength calming the Spirit with erotic control that freed the Captive trapped in darkness,

That sheltered the soul once

torn by beasts


I turned to build barriers so high

With mortar of uncertainty and bricks of Panic that could not withstand the

Humorous forays nor the erotic temptation

So easily presented with calm assurance Presented with circumspection yet persistence


I turned away, uncertain of the budding Emotion doubting life's affectation of joy, and

The depth of one man's noble integrity

He unwittingly lured me back

With utter sincerity and I observed with a Heart so overwhelmed by kindness

Observed with passions so intense

and wondrous



So, I turned yet once more but into the force

Of arms so wide and an embrace that

Threatens foundations built on once

Abused promises and savage defeats

Wondering about this mentor, this heart Tempter yet turning with quiet abandon, turning to HIM


A: So what do you think?

Z: Errr...emmm...kinda dramatic?

A: Really? 

Z: Oh, look at the time...lunch!

Another of those glimpses into the world of Angelica and Zi.  It should be noted that Angelica has been dieting...no telling what comes out of a mind deprived of chocolate and donuts. 

Any thoughts?
