Theresarrt http://journals.aol.com/theresarrt7/TheresaWilliams-author/entries/740 answered her queries so beautifully that she gave me the courage to comment, asking her to question me.

65 years after your death, you must be proud to remain the most quoted Psychologist in the literature. And your secretary, Otto Rank, has done pretty well too! Of all your associates, he remains the most profound.

Easy…..ART, in all of its manifestations.
5. What is something you wrote when you were a little boy that gave you joy? Try to recreate that piece of writing here.
called to dinner,
the boy and girl descend
from their bedrooms
where they must stay
in grandma`s house.
quietly, they pass the
dining room
through the kitchen
where grown-ups eat
to the shed.
unheated
quickly
they eat
in grandma`s house.
