thanks all - now I'm going to have to search both the video shop for the film and Moondawg's posts for the story!

Very thought provoking

like the story of the finger in the bucket of water. Wont tell it here, will use it in a post so if you don't know it you will have to keep looking for it. Like your poetry.

Interesting feel... realistic but not sad, just accepting of what it is,  a natural part of life.   Nicely done.

it's a beautiful film

those who know Wim Wenders' work really well prefer his seventies films but Wings was the first one I saw, at the old Pittsburgh Playhouse, in college, and it just blew me away.  Falk has a small but great part as himself.  tg

tb - now you have me wanting to see the movie and I'm not a Peter Falk fan!

Harvey - no illusions here (well, maybe just a couple of well hidden ones...)

this person/a sounds like me half the time

Don't know if that's good or bad, or if that's a compliment, but I'm looking your other work over and I'd say to you, or rather the person in those poems, one word, one which Peter Falk tells the angel he can't see in Wings of Desire: companero. tg

If I died tomorrow

My house would fall to the ground, and my hubby wouldn't know what to wear. Nobody would buy the groceries, or clean the bathroom. Laundry would multiply like rabbits in the night, and the bath tub would grow a black ring around it. The world would still turn, but it would miss one hell of a wacky gal!

Wow Ca88,

I love it. This person doesn't harbor any illusions.
