can’t remember the day the photo was made but as you look there, there it is all alone smack dab in the center of the photo of stars and a round blood-red moon the image is me you can see that can you not although I admit I’m sorta distorted among the cluster of heavenly beings but there I’m smiling inside this giant milky way haven’t found a place to find out what the taste of a milky way feels like yes, oh yes I am quite dead the instant I died I was whisked away to here where I can think and breathe although I am dead do not ask me how that is possible I was told I was waiting for someone special to join me when she dies anyway I guess the reason you can’t locate me is because of all the unworldly appearances in the form of laser-like streaks of brilliant colors smudges my appearance don’t know how long I have been here can’t leave just yet like I said I’m waiting for a special person to die then the reincarnation will be complete if she only knew what awaits us I guess I’m just a blurred streak in this milky way I’ll keep looking for a way to drink some of the milky way oh . . . I have no more time she has just departed the world I will be sent to her hope she will recognize me I know I’ll know her so . . . time to go ©April 11, 2017 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

A surrealist sojourn all your own Mr. Bolton. We'll miss you around here, but it sounds as though you have a way better deal going for you and that 'one' is now joining you. Leave a little something of that "Milky Way" for the rest of us dreamers...okay? Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |
