the cranium slumbers into repose as trivial thoughts pass by like flashy convertibles on a motorway trivial thoughts like pretty girls always travel in the passenger seats of these flashy convertibles fast cars and highway love Love today, break up tomorrow got to go my way a false I will remember you promise later the eyes search for the next flashy wagon around the corner a bright smile, a glint of huge happiness and a few sweet words later love is found again it is a total eclipse today and the eyes are closed tight, so tight that darkness can’t escape it must be pathetic to feel like a cigarette born to be smoked with a lifetime of slow burning as the smoker inhales deep breaths of you in a nicotine-tinged intoxication and then exhales yes, sometimes I am one of the “glass is half empty” people travelling downwards and searching the bottom of the chasm and then to think that the smoker continues his chain to him, one cigarette is just as good as another but then I am not going to buy a fast car not yet, anyway I have yet to sell my soul! |

When I saw the title and then saw your name next to it, I KNEW THAT NO WAY WERE THE THOUGHTS TRIVIAL!!!!!! Excellent writing my friend. It has been way too long since I have been able to indulge in your works and this one is a good example of why I always search out your name. BTW ... I didn't get to reply to it yet but I did very much enjoy the "64" as well. Keep on teaching sir and I will keep on reading and learning. |
