half-hearted and half drunk
I stand here alone
and today has been rainy
cold down to the bone

makes me wonder how many miles I've left
before I can sit down for awhile
half-knowing it's not supposed to be this way
half crying, with half a smile

full well knowing
absolutely nothing
worth saying.

I like this. Seems like you are on the verge of the existential moment. Thanks for posting it.

Dixie, think of all of us, and remember all these comments, keep us close, just for comfort...and to know, your witness to life's pervasive phenomenons, are enlightening to us...and they are hun...phenomenons...even in the rain....

love you
Lee J.

From what I can tell, your warranty is still valid with many miles and years left to go

Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

If you write it - I will come to read. It's just how it is.  I understand, but above that, I love how you express.
