You flip the switch and watch the roaches scatter back towards the cracks Raising your arm in your best Heston parting red sea impression you'll laugh though you want to cry The tears will come later in rememberance of all you've had to walk through But for now you get what you came for a drink before bed You'll sleep tonight and pray you wake in a better day in another place |

I remember those nights~ I'm a bit more careful when flipping the switch, and just keep praying that I'll find my way in the dark. Peace Raph~ |

My skin is still crawling just thinking about what you have to endure! I cannot even bare writing that name of those insects! You're a very brave soul! I suppose if they did pay part of the rent, their presence could be somewhat more tolerable! Sending you lots of protective White Light, EA |

Raph: how I have missed your daily inspirations . . . The problem is that most of the time they catch me barefoot - you know caught by surprise Just when you think they have gone and left you alone - here they come a creepin and I'm not talkin bugs . . . but you already know that Love the Heston reference . . . (I havent seen that in sooo long) I wrote one called "BUGS" . . . I'll have to go and tweak it up a bit (get one of those HUGE flyswatters you know they come with a big bug? Next time someone jacks with you - hit them with it lmao - just walk around with it all the time - I bet they'll leave you alone then) Seriously ( I was serious) I have missed you and this is a brilliant write to return with I know it too well . . . very insightful Raph truly xxoo [This message has been edited by littlewing (06-07-2003 07:52 PM).] |

I didnt catch that the first time around - you know what is really funny is Heston is portraying Moses, who is Jewish - you know like the movies with the white guy playing an Indian . . . same thing - funniest movie you ever saw . . what prey tell do you watch for cartoons? |
