Ava - "truth or dare" - A Wolf or A Lamb?

As mentioned two blogs ago, along with "The Tarot Immersions" collection The Open Sesames are working on a new collection written strictly from my personal point of view entitled, "Truth or Dare".

And, I will dare to tell my truths (some of which will be very easy because, for instance, it will be the truth about how a May day feels spent on the farm with Bonnie-Sister and her husband, Jon) and some of which will be more daring to reveal but I promise these truths will never be indelicately worded or intended to offend in any way.

Right now I am formulating a piece about how it feels to be a single woman. I have selected the music it will be set to and the chorus has emerged - which sets the tone for the entire piece. Now, all I need to do is to structure and write the verses.

I spent time with my successfully single friend in Bloomfield last night and from our frank and open conversation I realized that living freely and productively as a single women is like walking a tightrope, i.e., it requires discipline, skill, finesse, courage and self-knowledge.

"A wolf or a lamb?
A wolf or a lamb?
What is it that you think I am?
Me, I know the answer true
So, solving this riddle is up to you!

- Chorus from "A Wolf or A Lamb"
