I am unimportant
existence bleeds
into misery's
drain
now gone and left
with picket fences
and bombed
out houses-
memories-
how can I matter
I'm a name on a page
and before anyone will care
I'll be dead
and they'll all say,
"What a queer look
they had back then."

Before anyone cares you'll be dead?
*whap* That is simply not true.
Are you having a bad day other there or what?
check, minus!

Hey, just don't get your head stuck in the window!
I would hate to see you go that way! Cheer up Walt!

LOL-ing at -

and they'll all say,
"What a queer look
they had back then."

Just did some high school yearbook-thumbing with a friend ... realized it was US we thought looked like that ! !

Thanks for the smile~

A-Ha!!! Now I know who's been filching from my supply of self-pity... *G*

Seriously, wow... I like the dark tone of this and love the truth of looking back. *S* Very well done!
