And yet this is a false splitting (I think - perhaps I've missed the
point...?)  because the it's when we can walk away that still the line
is drawn through/threaded onto/into (already gone) and moving forward in
a passage of love, so they still form part of the shaping of our lives
-- but as love that isn't a struggle to cling to/require/define/protect
to be possessed by/of/in a state of not 'having' because you can't hold
on to love.  It's the lines that work their way around and through the
living/passing through a life that shape and twist and fling us apart
and bring us back together -- always moving forward /forward through the
past even.  Love is a line/one of my lines; so is hate and vengence and
lust and and and desire and and and -- I don't own them, embodied and
disembodied alike.  Becoming obsessed with the desire to hold on to any
line is just another line creating a movement forward into/around
through you/me/us and and and....
