without doubt, one of a kind
never walk across someone like thee
make you pay in sweat drops
and then just smile and wink

maybe not now, maybe not next week, month, or year.
but when you catch a glance
of the barely visible eyes,
forever you will live in fear
and the revenge will just be a
painfully ironic relief.

a soldier in a cage
and the only thing that holds me from the war
is a simple phone number to this weakness
that can put me back together and make me
feel whole and then empty me like the space vacant around
a thether ball poll when school is out

and when this captain is freed,
i will only make the living of the sinking ship
a more exciting sail.
and plan B; make some money to buy some time
and fight your war until I’m finished with mine.

life is just an independent film on the sundance channel
and all we do is play our roles and follow the script
all of us could publish a best seller
if our secrets weren’t best being kept in the cellar

my next internship : life.
my first like my last, and my last like my first.
fear only of failure.

the apple really isn’t important anymore,
i want the tree in its whole.

Ain't that the truth ....

    I must be upto the third rewrite, Volume 12 in my own life!!

   This made me laugh, cry, smile and cringe at its very essence.

    Thank you for the show!!
