THEN and NOW...

We travelled along
   separate pathways,

then and now,

diverged...

in a mutually exclusive moment
    (separate interpretations)

SUBMERGED.

Sans wings (and visual or mental clarity)
    even as we stood

UNITED
   (separately)


cloaked and daggered
    DEFENSIVELY....

BUT AS A SPECIES
    have we

EMERGED?

I know, I know...I took poetic 'license' and exercised poetic 'liberty' with the word diverged...not usually used as a past tense verb.

So? LOL.



LOL again, came back to edit a miss-spell

I've a theory that there is a predatory species among us, so camoflaged and specific in its nature, living to hunt us down in spite of our big brains and sensory adaptations.... so close to us it can even mate and produce offspring....

....but it's not us. It's Them.

ROTFL. Larry,
What are you sorry for/about?
Did you do/not do something you should have/shouldn't have?
LOL

Paperwork...I forgot the paperwork.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
