waxwings Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 (edited) as she stepped through the mudwildflowers sprouted from her footprints. she smiled loose and unbalanced. I am enjoying this, but have some qualms about the intent of 'unbalanced'. Of several possibilities there is one that 'frightens' me. I wonder if my idea of how that could be avoided is wrong, but here goes: she smiled as she stepped through the mud wildflowers sprouted from her footprints, loose and unbalanced. I have a hard time assuming Mother is 'loose and unbalanced', but a 'loose and unbalanced smile' defies (my) comprehension. Would you elucidate?
