In Retrospect

.

Paused in retrospect . . .


      locked


in pause . . .

can’t break loose
from the endless loop

of you

in retrospect . . .

You want to stay lost in some loops forever... others, you ache for an exit. *S* And one becomes the other all too quickly. *S*

I like this very much! *S*

A friend once called old habits, and repetitive (drunken) speeches "old tapes"...and sometimes how you have to take that tape out, and put in a new one....

this made me think of her.  Thank you, James.
