A water we cannot see across
Of this we stand in need
A brink we must visit and visit

Please pass it on.

Write then rewrite with physical concretizing metaphors.

:- Doug.

Exploring what uniform I wore and
What new hat I can try on next time
That is the adventure in this story

:- Doug.

Of course I’m mixing my metaphors—what better ways to savory flavors?

:- Doug.

Ask a question. Give her something to work on her.

:- Doug.

Through story, calling forth a higher humanity

:- Doug.

Not to beat upon my back
But to fan some embers

:- Doug.

What was lost or absent? What drove me to reinspect this event?

:- Doug.

What did I assume?
What did I, do I, seek to assimilate?
What is my role as lawyer, counselor, human?

:- Doug.

The cross exam is
Who are you?
Whom did you become?
Why? Why again?
Why not?

:- Doug.

The work is to prune myself and fertilize the row I tend.

:- Doug.
