hey... you know I remember seeing
some pretty astounding things in there too
there's an awful lot of strange to
be found where ever you
turn someone on
this planet
said it
can

be
a real
adventure
just sorting through

everything that's been
left behind
right

lets everybody
go out & look through the
neighbors trash jumpin' Jehosaphat
what do you think your doing... honestly I
can't believe this are you going to take that
ya know it isn't yours did I miss something
you just have to know where not to look
okay so I missed it oh come on
they expect
you
to

it's

like
motel soap
hey I'm still looking for

a synonym here - I might be able to
help you out you know I have dabbled a wee
bit in the art of writing back when I was in Jr. high
school of course that was a long time ago and thou
it's not anything to really boast or be ashamed of
you do know lots of tall handsome guys
who just couldn't get dates back
in those days wrote
poetry

sadly
some spent more time
at it than others I could tell 'cause
the library was packed with poetry books
mostly all written by men I thought you were
more interested in art oh sorry 'bout that we'll
go there later when I've got more than a few
minutes you know mom always said kids
grow parents pass and hopefully
the fly-byes are gone by
the mornin' if
your

lucky

the
only ones who
will be there for you from cradle
to grave are your sisters and I believed her
of course my sister dumped many a depraved soul
on my stoop that was before I knew failure was not a
factory installed option I was just about certain that
I was going to have to run on forever I'll have
to tell you about it some

time

this was so cool, and the picture was neat...I don't know how you and others like Marge do that

"the

I love these "drops" of beauty and how they flow into the mind and touch the heart.

A very captivating write!

Love,
