Writer's block...

Wed Jul 14, 2004, 6:36 PM
I have this experience that really stands out in my mind as something "writable" but I just can't get it onto paper...here's the story:
I went to this mall near my house, split up from my parents and went into Forever 21. All I saw were size XS skirts that no real girl could ever wear, size DD bras that no real girl could ever need, and $60 shirts that no girl could ever afford. I just got this profound sense of not fitting in, of not belonging. Some of that feeling spilled over into "Perfect" but that story had been brewing long enough, that the directions just wouldn't fuze. I started writing a poem that I MAY finish tonight, but I still think that it misses the point. I just want to explain this dire need to fit in that was met with an emphatic desire to be myself.
Hmm....

Oh...and another writing inspiration...
At synagogue on Friday (still flip-flopping between congregations), the Rabbi read exerpts from this book called _I Am Jewish_. It's based on the last words of this journalist who was killed in Iraq. It has statements from different Jewish celebrities who talk about what it means to be Jewish. The Rabbi suggested that we all take time to pen a few words about what it means to be Jewish. I think that I'll work on that tonight as well.
