Acting Medea Comments

Playing a character from a classic play must be very cathartic. I referred to your notes n to google to really understand this poem. I think both watching n enacting a classic is a thoroughly enlightening experience. We all have two conflicting forces within us....reason n passion. And to let one prevail over the other can be devastating. A great write with a classic flavor.

I too will be researching more like Kelly about the referred story. That has been my way of learning. But the stress of playing a role and finding ways to protect oneself from it is so well expressed in the poem. We all have this inner space where we need to retire to refresh and to reenergize. This assurance is what makes this poem a marvelous soothing potion for any stress of life. Thank you for sharing such lovely write.

Sure, we have too little rapport with the hidden part of the world and its beings. the last stanza opens the window to that world. the second - gives a dream about paradise - refreshed after performing the mismatch of female and male energies. the first - describes common frastration of our sensory world. so you show the way out,

You are infinitely more cultured than I but I always research your topics after reading your poems and I learn. Thank you. Your notes are great helps as well
