In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

On Grieving 

Theriomorph has a moving piece on her blog called Five Shorts on Grieving. She says some of the language was inspired by my post about Dave. It is informed by her own grief which she is able to hold out away from herself and shape into a thing of beauty—or something which is bearable for the moment as we try to know: where do they go?

Thank you, Theriomorph. She has a beautiful blog, by the way, and an intriguing, delicate, and lovely book available, Koan Garden: Ten Wu Wei Yin Stories by Jessamyn Smyth. And she loves Mario's writing, so she's my kind of gal, forever.
