Half pace: A landing in a stair which separates two flights of stairs. Zoanthropy: a monomania in which a person believes himself changed into an animal and acts like one Gyles' poem this week comes from one of our Purple People! It's called 'My Worry Tree' by Carol Mugano I have a little worry tree, I was given by a friend. If I didn't have my worry tree, I'd go right round the bend. When things are getting stressful, and particularly manic, I know I have my worry tree, so there's no need to panic. I'm so fortunate to have this tree. It's such a special kind. It's not growing in my garden, it's just planted in my mind. So, whenever I am anxious, and I don't know what to do, I will go and find my worry tree, and my big scissors, too. Then, the subject of my worry, that is causing so much grief, I will scoop it up so gently, and I'll place it on a leaf. Then, with my enormous scissors, The offending leaf I'll sever, and I'll watch my worry blow away, to disappear forever. A Sony Music Entertainment production.
