"P" is possible

Brokeback Shakespeare 3:


Jack:
I do love nothing in the world so well as you. Is that not strange?
Ennis:
As strange as the thing I know not. It were as possible for me to say I loved nothing so well as you. But believe me not, and yet I lie not. I confess nothing, nor I deny nothing.

========================================

=comment= For the less literary
Jack was unsuccessful in convincing Ennis that it was possible for the two of them to build a life together.

"Q" is quetches

Jack quetches about Joe Aguirre's sleep-with-the-sheep-and-no-fire order until Ennis offers to take over that role.

"R" is retched

After Jack and Ennis parted at summer’s end, Ennis was so overwhelmed over “losing” Jack, he paused, knelt and retched with grief and anger.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"T" is thwarted

Bokeback Mountain - in Annie Proulx's book "Close Range" - is the story of thwarted passion between two sheepherders.  It won an O. Henry Short Story Award.

"U" is ululation

Ennis' and Alma’s argument after Thanksgiving dinner resulted in Ennis threatening Alma, and Alma getting upset and angry to the point of ululation.

Def: wailing

Ennis had vantage over Jack when it came to sharp-shooting.

"W" is Wal-Mart

 ... a Wal-Mart spokeswoman replied, "The fact that we are offering the movie (Brokeback Mountain) is not an endorsement of the content of the movie or any specific belief. ...We simply offer the latest titles that consumers want."

"X" is xcitability

When Jack asked Lashawn to dance, it was plain she was prone to loquaciousness and xcitability.

When Ennis introduced Jack to Alma, she said, "hello" yieldingly.
