Meaning, depth, layers

Take a sore toe. Put a layer of medicine on it. Put a bandaid on it. Put a sock on it. Put a slipper over it all. Now you feel a dull ache from time to time, but it's far away. Take a moody mommy, peeved because her hand made bracelets aren't selling. Take off the slipper and you see a mommy looking for a creative outlet. Take the sock off and find a woman who feels the need for recognition and validation in whatever way she can get it. Take the medicine off, and find a lonely, worn out, deliriously happy but desperately sad soul, a little mixed up and a lot yearning to feel somewhere in the middle and ok.
