I prefer Christopher in conversation. In writing, I use C L Couch because it’s a genderless form of my name and, frankly, easier—I have severe writer’s cramp. I mean to be a poet writing spiritual and occasional verse. The photographs used permanently here—for the banner, for my profile—were taken by Debra Danielson, a photographer and friend. You may enjoy more of her work at debra.danielson.org. If you would credit me when quoting my work, I'd be thankful. As I am thankful for your presence here.

I’ve been wondering about this! Had a rough day and a brain freeze.. couldn’t think clearly. Thanks for sharing this.

Certainly. The Anglo-Saxons argued for multiple solutions to riddles, one solution being abstract and the other more material. That must have led to some fisticuffs. I tried to make riddles with one solution per, though I doubt I’d fight with anyone who sees something different. Thanks for bearing with them at all!
