‘...an acknowledgement of the human condition in us all
that makes us all flawed, complex, gorgeous creatures.
All of us ...,’ sighs Cecilia, swishing out her waist length hair
& giving Emmeline’s old harp another dirty great twang.
I’d like to conduct a poll in which respondents are required
to answer whether this statement reflects their own feelings:
A) ‘more or less’,
B) ‘not at all’.
(Go on, be brave, state your preference.)
My own response, I’m afraid, would be covered adequately only
by a Y) or a Z).
Anyone who can gaze at his sleeping cat, then turn to the human
being snoring in the chair across the room – & still enjoy these
elevating thoughts is not, as they say, in full possession of the facts
(or his own wits.).
Holden was right & Zooey was whistling in the dark.
