Best read through
eyes of an owl
"Or an Owliverio,"
said Mrs. CarPeo

If only Jean had kept her mouth shut!
If women would only stop confessing!
But if most of them had to choose
between kissing and telling,
they would pick the telling.

DeleteOtherwise, revenge would have to meet
strict standards.
Strict or experimental?
DeleteThe greater the strictures, the greater the need
Deletefor experiment and creativity.
As true for revenge as it is for pruning a garden.
