I, um, couldn't think of anything better for the credits, and kind of wanted to see how that would sound. :)

Some of the photos belong to Darius Kowalski, from his art project "Interrogation Room" earlier this same year. Just remembered! :)

You cannot know joy til you have known sorrow
Nor release til you have known pain
You cannot know freedom less you have been a slave
Nor can you have beauty til you've looked in the mirror

The name is "El Qannah" in Hebrew, for "The Jealous". Very nice! And thank you for sharing this with us! :)

Remember, Sandi, I'm not trying to make any broad theological statements with this short play - just offer up some interesting ideas to play with, a creative interpretation. :)

Thank you, P. W. I only wish we would, as one creation, be able to return love to God and each other. . . too bad we don't. . .

I suppose so, but it's up to the director. :) I'm not going to dictate EVERYTHING about a production.

It is an honor. I serve the work, not the other way around. :)

Dear Lonnie,

Thank you for your kind comments! The ending, as I conceived it, would not be some huge, earthshaking theological or ethical discovery or conclusion. . . The title itself is "ruminations", or thoughts, and rarely do one's thoughts conclude very nicely. . . I hope on your re-read of the final segment, you may perhaps appreciate that better. :)

Again - I'm not trying to make any broad theological statements. This is, after all, a creative interpretation of a hugely controversial topic.

Dear Kushal, you are an amazing poet. :) I think your talent far surpasses mine when it comes to poetry. . . I am a novelist by my own volition, and by some natural talent as well; poetry - it is wholly your arena to dominate.

I particularly liked the first one, which title I do not remember, but which words I found poignant and uniquely refreshing from the same kinds of poetry I see all the time, even from my own pen.

Unholy Ruminations
